OK. For anyone else who is tearing their hair out over this one... It would appear that the earlier version of this script works fine in relation to the problem above.
You can grab v1.1pre here: http://view.jquery.com/trunk/plugins/autocomplete/jquery.autocomplete.js You can link to the demo from here: http://docs.jquery.com/UI/Autocomplete#Demos Clarification of the problem ======================= Try the Multiple Cities (local): in IE and it works just fine: (v1.1pre) http://view.jquery.com/trunk/plugins/autocomplete/demo/ Try the Multiple Cities (local): in IE and it does not work (v.1.1): http://jquery.bassistance.de/autocomplete/demo/ It does seem to be related to the Selection function when triggered via a mouse click rather than via 'Enter'. If the author could get the multiple feature working as it did in v1.1pre in the most recent v1.1 version it would be excellent! There are also far too many versions of autocomplete flying around in cyberspace. Thanks in advance authors. Rye
