I can confirm that the autocomplete widget does not work at all in IE 7, 8,
or 9 (at least not using the 'welcome' app). After I type two letters, the
input box loses focus (i.e., I cannot continue typing). I then click back in
the box, type another character, and it loses focus again -- I have to click
back in the box to enter each character. Also, as I enter characters, no
suggestions every appear (even though there are entries in the database that
match what I am typing). Same code works fine in Chrome. If anyone has any
suggestions, I'm happy to do some testing.
