Tony, I was able to fix by own bug. I commented out like 899 ($self.blur();) and added a return true after line 901. That makes it so if you hit tab while at the end of the tree the tab will bubble up to the browser which will move focus to the next item. I tested in IE7 and FF4 and it works

Very very nice plugin. I have been looking for something like this for a long time. I do have one bug report though. If there are multiple form items and they user is trying to tab between them it doesn't look like there is a way to tab out of the dropdown in IE7. For example, if i have

Josh, Very nice! One small issue...if I click in the main part of the dropdown, rather than on the down arrow, I can't select any options with the mouse. This is a little different than a native select control, where you can click anywhere on it. I updated the code over the weekend. You

Hey Dan, great plugin, the interface is both innovative and familiar, and works well - as long as I use either mouse or keyboard, but not both. The inconsistent behaviour was already mentioned by so many others in this thread, I hope it gives you an idea how to merge both controls into one. If

Great that you fixed it so soon Dan, I also hope that you can modify the keyboard mode a bit as it could confuse the user and this can't be done with just CSS. Perhaps you could let the autocomplete mode trigger after a certain amount of characters have been entered or perhaps start with an empty
