    <p>I have come across a problem I just can't solve. I am using <a href="http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/Autocomplete/autocomplete" rel="nofollow noreferrer">autocomplete</a> plugin for jQuery on an input. The HTML looks something like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;tr id="row_house" class="no-display"&gt; &lt;td class="col_num"&gt;4&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td class="col_label"&gt;House Number&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td class="col_data"&gt; &lt;input type="text" title="House Number" name="house" id="house"/&gt; &lt;button class="pretty_button ui-state-default ui-corner-all button-finish"&gt;Get house info&lt;/button&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; </code></pre> <p>I am sure that this is the only <code>id="house"</code> field. Other fields that are before this one work fine with autocomplete, and it's basically the same algorithm (other variables, other data, other calls). So why doesn't it work like it should work with the following init. code:</p> <pre><code>$("#house").autocomplete(["1/4","6","6/1","6/4","8","8/1","8/5","10","10/1","10/3","10/4","12","12/1","12/5","12/6","14","14/1","15","15/1","15/2","15/4","15/5","16","16/1","16/2","16/21","16/2B","16/3","16/4","17","17/1","17/2","17/4","17/5","17/6","17/7","17/8","18","18/1","18/2","18/3","18/5","18/95","19","19/1","19/2","19/3","19/4","19/5","19/6","19/7","19/8","20","20/1","20/2","20/3","20/4","21","21/1","21/2","21/3","21/4","22","22/9","23","23/2","23/4","24","24/1","24/2","24/3","24/A","25","25/1","25/10","25/2","25/4","25/5","25/6","25/7","25/8","25/9","26","26/1","26/6","27","27/2","28","28/1","29","29/2","29/3","29/4","30","30/1","30/2","30/3","31","31/1","31/3","32/A","33","34","34/1","34/11","34/2","34/3","35","35/1","35/2","35/4","36","36/1","36/A","37","37/1","37/2","38","38/1","38/2","39/1","39/2","39/3","39/4","40","40/1","41","41/2","42","43","44","45","45/1","45/10","45/11","45/12","45/13","45/14","45/15","45/16","45/17","45/2","45/3","45/6","45/7","45/8","45/9","46","47","47/2","49","49/1","50","51","51/1","51/2","52","53","54","55/7","66","109","122","190/8","412"], {minChars:1, mustMatch:true}).result(function(event, result, formatted) { var found=false; for(var index=0; index&lt;HChouses.length; index++) //HChouses is the same array used for init, but each entry is paired with a database ID. if(HChouses[index][0]==result) { found=true; HChouseId=HChouses[index][1]; $("#row_house .button-finish").click(function() { QueryServer("HouseConnect","FillData",true,HChouseId); //this performs an AJAX request }); break; } if(!found) $("#row_house .button-finish").unbind("click"); }); </code></pre> <p>Each time I start typing (say I press the "1" button), the text appears and gets deleted instantly. Rarely at all after repeated presses I get the list (although much shorter than it should be)<a href="http://www.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/de3892134d.jpg" rel="nofollow noreferrer">alt text http://www.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/de3892134d.jpg</a></p> <p>But if after that I press the second digit, the whole thing disappears again. P.S. I use Firefox 3.6.3 for development.</p>

    2. COjQuery UI autocomplete works, but not like I want it to work. It allows values outside the list, doesn't format the data by highlighting the matched sequences. Still waiting for an answer to this one.

Guidance
A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
