-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,
It looks like an "edit field", because name-one is indeed an input field where you can type. The trick is: you start typing the name of a client, and then you are given a list to select from, just like when you are start typing in Google and Google suggests some possible words. If it doesn't work you can monitor the Ajax calls in several ways. For example, you can look at the log or use Firebug's network tab.
