Hi Tim, If you can't wait, and have the skill to take the path of tweaking a widget you can have look at this thread :
https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/web2py/9KamKgHKUwU You can also read this slice : http://www.web2pyslices.com/slice/show/1446/widget-select-or-add-option The slice may be outdated and to integrate it you could need to downgrade web2py, I really don't know. Just keep that in mind in case you don't make it works. I would first make working the slice so you can understand how it works better and then have look at what I did. There is a dummy app that I attach to one of the mail in the thread that use my select or add option autocomplete widget. I remember the sensitive part to make it working properly was the fadeout delay, there were a minimum above which tha add option stop working properly. I think I leave comment in the code about that. I didn't check what was the change in the last version of the web2py built in autocomplete widget, so I can't warranty the combination is still possible. Have fun.
