I believe the code above translates to my onFindValue. This means the above code is run when a value is selected via the autoselect control. This means that the above code should update your hidden field when the user using the autocomplete control to fill in a value. In order to manually fire off this event, you want to run the search() method. This would go through and look up the value in the Autocomplete control and then fire off the callback function specified in your result() method. $("#suggest2").search(); Lastly, just be aware that Jorn's code isn't 100% complete yet. There are some quirks that are still be working out. -Dan
