Description
With version 1.8, clearing an input field after an autocomplete selection in the "change:" event worked fine.
In version 1.8.2 the field has to lose focus before the field value is cleared.
Which is the correct behaviour?
$(function(){
var tags = ["c++", "java", "php", "coldfusion", "javascript", "asp", "ruby", "python", "c", "scala", "groovy", "haskell", "perl"];
$("#selector").autocomplete({
source: tags,
select: function(e, ui) {
var selectedvalue = ui.item.value;
$("#selection").html(selectedvalue);
},
change: function() {
$("#selector").val("");
}
});
});
The current behavior is intended. You can get the previous behavior by clearing the text field and canceling the select event. In the future, if you're unsure if something is a bug, please use the forums.
