...and that seemed to solve the problem. I *think* it works because keydown is registered before the form value is part of the DOM, where keyup is after the data has been entered. Enclosed is the patched version.

Description
if the minchars option is set to 1 the suggest will not display until 2 characters have been entered. After that, results will display on 1 character. I believe I have a work around, but it needs further testing. Attached is a patched version.
I removed the event handlers in .suggest function from
// I really hate browser detection, but I don't see any other way
if ($.browser.mozilla)
$input.keypress(processKey); // onkeypress repeats arrow keys in Mozilla/Opera
else
$input.keydown(processKey); // onkeydown repeats arrow keys in IE/SafariTo:
$input.keyup(processKey);...and that seemed to solve the problem. I *think* it works because keydown is registered before the form value is part of the DOM, where keyup is after the data has been entered. Enclosed is the patched version.
