Hi Tim and WOFriends,

Thanks for the update - that could be what we were experiencing. Our page was 
rather long… it might have showed the auto-completer way down out of view - I 
don’t know - but that is what you appear to be suggesting and very well could 
be it. 

For us, the “solution” was to make a fork of current wonder and replace the 
version of prototype with the blessed one for the version of Scriptaculous in 
Wonder. I believe that was Prototype v1.7.0 (going from memory, not verifying 
right now). It’s whatever version that originally shipped with Scriptaculous 
and there is not a newer version of Scriptaculous to upgrade too - that project 
appears dead. 

So it’s not ideal - next time we update Wonder we’ll have to replace prototype 
- or build something different. Anyway - I stuck my finger in the dike and 
moved on.
