Hi all, I'm using a modified autocomplete from http://www.pengoworks.com/workshop/jquery/autocomplete.htm and am having some issues using the onItemSelect option. It works, but seems to be calling the function once when autocomplete is called to during $(document).ready. In the code below, focusFirst is called when the document loads as well as when an item is selected. This doesn't seem like a desirable behavior. Does anyone know why this is or how it could be remedied? Thanks for any help anyone can offer.
-matthaus Here is some example code: <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="./includes/css/ jquery.autocomplete.css" media="all" /> <script src="./includes/javascript/jquery-1.3.2.min.js" type="text/ javascript"></script> <script src="./includes/javascript/jquery.autocomplete.js" type="text/ javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> function focusFirst() { $('#firstSearch').focus(); alert('called'); } $(document).ready(function() { $('#firstSearch').autocomplete('handlers/searchHandler.php', { mustMatch: 1, onItemSelect: focusFirst, extraParams: {search: 'first'}}); }); </script> <strong>Search By First Name: </strong><input type="text" class="search" name="firstSearch" id="firstSearch" />
