I had thought of that workarround, but being the TacosAutocompleter based on a script.acul.uous Ajax.AutoCompleter widget how can I change the URL parameter of the widget?
If it were a dojo widget I would now how to get it, but like this after creating the widget how can I in a JS event get a reference to it so I can change it?
Maybe I'm being a little newbie in this but honnestly I'm in a bit of a stall!
Anybody who nows a bit more about this script.acul.uous Ajax.AutoCompleter widget can help me? Andy, how about that, can you give me a opinter on this specific issue.

the AutoCompleter in svn trunk supports a 'parameters'
parameter - just like the one found in DirectLink
see
http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.cgi/tacos/trunk/src/java/net/sf/tacos/ajax/components/Autocompleter.jwc?view=markup
Of course all those additional parameters will be 'static' - DirectLink has the same
'issue'.
My usual hack for this is to define a dummy placeholder parameter, i.e. XXX
and use _javascript_ to replace and rewrite the URL...
I've done something similar in tacos:DebugConsole, but please don't tell anyone :)
If anyone knows a better solution, i'm all ears!
