Autocomplete: menu layout in IE6

Description

The anchor on each menu item doesn't span the full menu in IE6, so its easy to click on the menu without selecting an item. Setting width:100%, as suggested on the forum (http://forum.jquery.com/topic/1-8rc3-autocomplete-error-in-ie6) breaks the layout in FF. And the anchor is already display:block, so it actually should span...

There is width:100% defined for .ui-menu .ui-menu-item - removing that actually makes a different in IE6 and, it seems, none in Firefox. Still not perfect, but better.

In jquery.ui.autocomplete.css, following the workaround from the autocomplete section, I've added:

/* workarounds */

  • html .ui-menu .ui-menu-item a { width:100%; } /* without this, the a element expands to 100% in IE6 */

That is because IE6 has some problems with width:auto.

It seems to work both in Firefox and IE6 now.
