1) If you click inside the text box, you go into "keyboard" entry mode--so you're actually seeing the "autocomplete" box, not the dropdown menu. You can change the styles in the CSS to make this look however you want (so that you can make it look visual different.) Currently, when you're in keyboard entry mode you can not use the mouse to select entries. You can disable keyboard support by using a <div/> element instead of an <input/> element and then clicking "inside" would always cause the same menu as dropdown arrow. 2) The second issue (with the large vertical spacing) seems to be related to the Chili plug-in (which is used for syntax highlighting.) The problem seems to be random and only occurs when Firebug reports Chili errors (at least that's the only time I've seen the behavior.) I've never seen the behavior on a page that doesn't have the Chili plug-in. -Dan
