Try
onTextCommand
This is called when the user selects something from the popup, set as an attribute on the textbox element. See also ontextrevert and oninput.
There is also the AutoCompleteSession onAutoComplete which is called around the same time, just a bit earlier. I use this to lookup the URI of the folder in the textbox, since there is no name->value type architecture available.
If you want to dig around a working autocomplete session have a look at Quick File.

I've created a custom auto-complete session in JS using code from an old post by Neil (thanks Neil!). Now I'd like to know when the user clicks one of the items in the results list.
Is there any way to get call an "onselect"-type function when the user clicks/presses enter on a result? e.g. a polite way to get a handle on the autocomplete popup's tree?
At this point I've tried so many possibilities without sucess I was ready to re-implement autocomplete functionality entirely, except it turns out Mozilla crashes if I put a tree inside a popup ;)
Thanks,
Matt
