Hi,
I have a nice web-app that was a pleasure to write in T5; but am running
into problems that I need some help with. The autocomplete mixin works just
fine in FF3 etc but there is a issue that seriously affects its usability in
IE (I have only tested 7) and end-users are complaining. When typing the
autocomplete fails the first time the field is used, only clearing the field
and typing again will get autocomplete to work in IE. SO users with IE
either think there is no autocomplete or think it is horribly slow and
flaky. Its also rather central to my apps utility.

This seams to be a problem with prototype; I found some information and
workarounds in other environments, but no fix seams to be in the works. See
for instance 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/108650/script-aculo-us-autocompleter-problem-in-ie/
for more information. 

So how can I solve this now in 5.0.18?

One option would be to follow the suggested js hack - but how to insert the
javascript at the expected place (after or when autocomplete.js gets
loaded)? Another is to patch prototype; but how then keep that cleanly
separate in my project? Both involve some form of asset overriding that I
can figure out how to do without making my own builds of t5-core or
prototype.

Or perhaps someone has a better solution? An alternative autocomplete
component that works in IE?

BR
Peter
