    Problem using 2 suggestion box tags on same page

    acefrehley

      Hi, I have two input fields with suggestion box capability on the same page. One is for entering county, the other for entering town.

      If I type into county, the suggestion box list comes up. If I type into town, the suggestion box list also comes up. When making a selection from the town list, I populate town, county, and state from the list. This all works fine.

      The problem is, the *second* time I type into county, after having made a selection from the town list, I no longer get a selection list for county any more (the suggestionAction for county is not fired. I am printing log messages to verify this). I still get back a selection list when I type into town after this initial selection has taken place.

      Do I have any tag attributes included/omitted that could be causing this problem? Is the fact that I have reRender="county" on the town's aj4:support tag an issue?

      The reason for the multiple regions is that each attribute is in a table cell. I removed the surrounding td tags to make this more readable.

      Thanks.
