Just my $0.02: I'd recommend going with Jörn's rewrite, UNLESS you need the "mustMatch" option which doesn't yet work in his version. Jörn's version is much more likely to be updated than mine and (I assume) Dan's, and Jörn did a more than excellent job.
I'm switching jobs on August 1, and my new job actually needs me to do jQuery stuff (everything I did up to now was in my spare time), so I hope to be more active as of then. Dylan On 7/10/07, Dan G. Switzer, II <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Sorry, just trying to understand >who's who. What should I download from that page? Not that the who's who really matters that much, but the story is as follows. Dylan Verheul released the original Autocomplete plug-in. It did most of what I needed, but was missing several crucial parts that I needed so I fixed a few bugs and added the handful of features I needed. Jörn Zaefferer liked what I did, but wanted to implement a few more features (such as multiple selections,) so he started re-writing my mod (it's almost a completely re-write now) to add new features and streamline the code. When I can, I help Jörn out with the project. As for what you should download, I'd recommend grabbing all the code and playing around with it. It's a completely re-write and we know some of the new features are not finished (multiple select items don't work completely the way we'd like to see them work.) -Dan >On Jul 9, 8:49 am, "Dan G.
