similar to: auto_complete_for method not found error

I am trying to get more out of auto_complete than it apparently was designed to deliver.

Hello All, I''m a RoR newbiew, trying to experiment with Autocomplete, but I''m having some difficulties.

hi.

I recently updated to version 1.5_pre4 to use the excellent in-place editor, however, I''m now seeing a bug with AutoCompletion.

Upon removing focus from the text field, 2 instances of the following error can be seen in both
