Can't input Value without using Auto Complete drop down

[ctilley83]

Whenever I attempt to input a value manually, the text field will clear when the cursor exits the input. I need the ability to not only autocomplete, but to enter a value manually into a text box.

I have my field setup where I search for name and display an id as follows

 <%= autocomplete_field_tag "billing_client_id" , '','autocomplete_client_name', :id_element =>"#billing_client_id" %>

also occurs when using

<%= autocomplete_field ...... %>

This is a definite issue. Any word on this?

Not yet. It's been a week or so and none of the developers have even commented. I may have to use another solution if this doesn't change.

Anyone have any suggestions?
