Hey Dan,
I am playing around with your suggestions below on how to implement
multiple autocomplete calls on one form using your implementation. I
have added the second argument (input) in the callback as you
suggested, but am stumped about where in the code to pass the input
reference from? I have tried the onFindValue argument in the
autocomplete call, but that is not working. I am getting 'input is
not defined' errors and have not yet been able to trigger an alert
box.
Any clues?
