Thanks Jorn.
I can say that I've tested the integration of autocomplete and dialog now. :)
So far so good.
What I was missing was the change from .autocomplete(url/data, options)
to .autocomplete({url: "", data:"", etc.}). Once I found that the plugin
worked fine. I have not seen any errors per se. However I did notice
the .result() is not binding (or perhaps I'm using it wrong... was planning
on looking into that today).
But, if autocomplete will not be included until 1.7, then I should probably
just use your plugin, rather than UI's version.
Thanks for the info.
