I'm using jquery autocomplete 1.0.2. The autocomplete retrieves data
from the server and the option mustmatch is set to true.

My data on the server has a code field and a description, and I'm
returning
<code>+" "+<description>|<id>
an example of data returned by the server would be:
FIN Finance|2
PER Personel7

This work fine except when the code field contains numeric data, eg.
010 Finance|2
020 Personel7

In this case, when an element is selected, the textbox is cleared on
selection, although I have a valid selection.
The result event however is triggered, so this indicates I have a
valid selection. The result event is used to set a hidden field to the
<id> of the selected item.

What do I need to change to make this work?
