> We can't use autocompletion in lookups with a dependent field. For instance a Name for the lookups field and an hidden field for the Id (or vice versa which makes less sense, if any). This is not a problem OOTB, but in the Example component where such a sctructure is used (2d lookup)
> I tried a clumsy solution at r993508, but David had to revert it because it was breaking all current lookups OOTB.
> This solution was based on a couple of names for the fields. I suggested a slightly better solution by using fields positions instead of names. It's less intrusive, especially if we put some tests, but still unsure.
> Of course the best method would be to use the description-field-name. But it would need to change the current lookup structure. Because the autocomplete feature is Ajax based and either using Prototype/Scriptaculous or jQuery we don't have the possibility to change the value of the hidden dependent field ([more in this thread|
http://markmail.org/message/7adznlrdmdmwx2tr].
> Note: I had a look at [extraParams in jQuery which handles Dependencies between fields|
http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/autocomplete#Dependencies_between_fields]. It's great but what we need is other way around. Here you define how the load is done on the autcompleted field and we want to set a related (ID) value on an hidden field after the user has selected the value (Name) in the autcompleted field.
> At least it is what I found so far...
