I tried passing \n as a token but it doesnt seem to do anything with it.  My unelegant workaround for now is to comment out the line in controls.js that looks for return:

      switch(event.keyCode) {
       case Event.KEY_TAB:
//       case Event.KEY_RETURN:
         this.selectEntry();
         Event.stop(event);

Have you tried changing the autocomplete tokens?  I imagine trapping or not trapping the '\n' (newline character ) would control this behavior.

Before-  tokens: new Array(' ',',','\n')

After- tokens: new Array(' ',',')

Is there an option to prevent the 'return' key from autocompleting?  On my application I like having the autocomplete show possible matches for users, but I dont want to force them to use a partial match.

Example:
1) User wants to enter "sock" into the textbox
2) Autocomplete finds a term "sockpuppet" and shows it
3) User sees "sockpuppet" but is still satisfied with "sock", so he hits return to submit the form --> but "sockpuppet" autofills into the box! The only way to circumvent the autocompletion is to put a space, comma, etc.

Thanks,
Justin
