As you've discovered, if you're into autocompletion, there's Ajax.Autocompleter. Otherwise, you'd just need to observe the field, either manually or through a Form.Element.EventObserver (which is better). Finally, remember that from a grammatical standpoint, <input> tags are only valid within <form> tags, even if those are not used by the UI eventually. -- Christophe Porteneuve a.k.a.
