I am developing a web2py app on Mac OS X Leopard, the
autocompleteWidget works as expected in both Safari and Firefox,
however, in IE on a Windows machine the behavior of the
autocompleteWidget is rather awkward.

This is the form:

form=SQLFORM.factory(Field('city',requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY(),widget=SQLFORM.widgets.autocomplete(request,db.address.city,min_length=2)))

In IE, when I start typing a city name the field looses focus after
typing the second letter, and I have to click the field to give it
back its focus to be able to type the next letter, this happens after
every letter I type. Furthermore the drop down list showing the
options fades out so fast the user doesn't have the time to select one
of the options.

How do I solve this problem?
