I had to modify the updateElement method to trim the spaces. Change this: this.element.value = value;
To this: this.element.value = value.replace(/^\s*|\s*$/g,""); Not sure why that wouldn't be there already.

It actually appears to be newlines that are being inserted into the textfield. Any ideas what may be causing this? Would this occur because of extra spacing in the markup I'm sending back from the server? I tried removing some, but it didn't seem to have an affect.
