I replace the <select> with a <input> using Ajax.Autocompleter If we type "john" or "peter" we still get a very long list, so the list shows the scroll bar, and its ok. The problem is that when we try to scroll, the list fades out. It

Hi all, I have used the sciptaculous Ajax autocompleter a few times now. A major problem I have at the moment is with a text field that has focus when a page loads. The text field has an autocompleter associated with it, but when the user starts typing, the firefox saved form data autocompleter appears first, and the scriptaculous one is partially hidden behind it. Has anyone else encountered

Hi All, I am currently using script.aculo.us and Autocompleter for a project which I am dealing now. I faced a situation for which I couldnt find any solution and I could not see any reference regarding this issue in the enhancement/bug lists of script.aculo.us either.

Hey all, When using the Ajax.autocompleter, how would I configure it so that the user is searching based on an entry''s name, but once they select an entry, I record the ID?

Hello, I am using the AutoCompleter to great effect. However, the site design I have been constrained by has <select> elements/drop down boxes below the AutoCompleter field.

Has anyone encountered,

I have been trying to write a selector function for Autocompleter.Local that will show a predefined Array and will scroll automatically to the first match. I have had success with with getting my list to populate and show all of the choices, however I cannot get it to scroll to the first match.

I used the parameters option but this only sends a static variable (i.e. I can''t do something like parameters:"param1="+$ (''checkbox1'').checked).
