A peek at the docs (http://wiki.script.aculo.us/scriptaculous/show/
Ajax.Autocompleter) show the parameter is the selected list element:
an <li> tag. Element.value wouldn't work--it doesn't mean anything
to a list element.
If that doesn't work, tell us what version of Scriptaculous you're
using, and which brower. The Scriptaculous source is pretty
straightforward about calling your custom function with the selected
element passed. Don't be afraid to dive into the source.
function sayhi (el) {
alert (el +' : '+el.innerHTML);
}
