hey all,

i was required to create an auto complete drop down list, a common
enough thing.
i got it done soon enough, but decided i wanted to make a generic
class so that i could attached this behavior to any number of elements
that access different server side pages/behaviors.

however, in my initialize method, i get the error:

"event is not defined
Event.observe(this.element, 'keyup',
this.elementKeyUpHandler(event));"

the class is instantiated from another js file, which uses Event with
no issue.

i thought the problem could be some sort of class inheritance, but i
am unsure how to inherit from from prototype, as it is an API not a
class in it self.
Then again i could be totally off, which i do suspect!

any help would be great!

here its the class snippet causing the problem:

var AutoComplete = Class.create(
{
        initialize: function(element)
        {

                this.blank = true;
                this.prevInput = "";
                this.element = element;
                this.json = new Hash();

                Event.observe(this.element, 'keyup',
this.elementKeyUpHandler(event));
                Event.observe(this.element, 'blur', 
this.elementBlurHandler(event));

        }, ....
});
