New issue 269 by techdragon.nguyen: using jqueryui autocomplete causes
onclick handlers not to work properly
http://code.google.com/p/iui/issues/detail?id=269
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. include jqueryui 1.8.1 and autocomplete plugin
2. define a widget to handle the autocomplete
3. click an item on the list generated by typing in matching data
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
the value of the item clicked upon should appear in the input box. In
Safari, the form is submitted. and no value is filled into the input box.
The "select" method of the jquery call does not get ui parameter. I am
pretty sure it has to do with iui's handling of anchor tags. The
autocomplete plugin uses anchor tags to encapsulate the list items. I
can't figure out how to modify iui so that the event handlers from
jqueryui also fire. It seems they are being superceded by iui's.
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.40-dev2
