Plugins

The plugins site is currently in development.

We've been looking to provide a higher-quality, spam-free experience at the plugins site for some time, and a major error on our part forced us to shut down the current site before we could put the new one in place. We are developing a new site, and you can follow along with its development on GitHub. For more information about this transition, including steps you can take as a plugin author to prepare, please read our post about what's going on.

Doesn't work in IE6 or IE7


Project:jQuery AutoComplete
Version:1.0.1
Component:Code
Category:bug report
Priority:critical
Assigned:Unassigned
Status:active
Description

I'm kinda disappointed that this pushed as production-ready but it doesn't work in IE (6/7).

Load up http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/AutoComplete/autocomplete#options and you'll get errors.

Yeah, this is funny when you read on the author site (http://reinh.com/2008/02/21/new-jquery-autocomplete-plugin.html):

Why, then, do we need another? The answer for me was simple: The existing plugins all fit into at least one (and often most) of the following categories: [...], poorly coded, [...].

Anyway, this one can be fixed easily. On line 137, replace the very odd

var container = list.wrapAll(opt.wrapper).parents(":last").children();

by

var container = list.wrapAll(opt.wrapper).parent();

Hope this helps.
