autocomplete

Heya,

I have just implemented the excellent jQuery UI autocomplete.

http://jqueryui.com/demos/autocomplete/

There is a strange bug in IE 8 (and maybe other versions).

When you select an item from the box of suggestions in IE 8 the cursor moves to the begining of the textbox before the suggested word which has just been inserted.

Firefox put the cursor after the inserted word.

Does anyone know of a fix for this?

Regards

Steve
