Actually, it only stores the fields/data from within the actual "deff"
form, which consists only of the "q" (default search) field. The only
thing it will add is the actual text of previous searches.
Do you think it's a good idea to provide indexing of fields to the
search-based forms as well? It could be done manually within your own
code by adding this line:
window.external.AutoCompleteSaveForm(yourFormName);
...immediately before the submitForm() method. OR if we want to
implement it globally we would add it to the submitForm() method
directly.
This would still not actually include the posted-to url's within the
history. It would only add those fields that existed within the search
form - and not the "action" attribute. That could be coded within
submitForm() too - but I think it takes the focus further from the
code.
Something else to consider is that IE's processing of this stuff is
based on the form-fields' name. IOW, anything you submit in DQSD (even
if it is a local file name) will now be added to autocomplete options
for all form fields across the web named "q" (like google's search
box).
I don't personally see this as a problem, but could see where people
might need to be made aware of it.
Speaking of autocomplete - does anyone have any idea how to make it
work with multi-line=true? I *have* to have mine at two lines simply
because of the length of some of the queries I stuff in there - and
would like auto-complete too. Any hope for that?

Ooops. I forgot that was in there. You're welcome to take it out, or I
will if you like. I hadn't removed it again after figuring out how to
put it in for that one request.
As far as I can tell, at it's worst, it would simply set the button to
it's default width and bypass the error that has been randomly
reported.
