This fix works on IE8 but not on IE9. I would suggest opening a new ticket for this on IE9

You have to get the source bundle (at http://www.icefaces.org/main/downloads/os-downloads-1-8.iface), replace autocomplete_ext.js with the new version, and rebuild icefaces jars. Top level build.xml should have a target to build everything. Rebuilt jars should be in icefaces/lib directory.

Thanks Yip, but I don't know how to use this javascript file. Can you please explain me on this. I am using ICEfaces 1.8.2.

Thanks.

Get the latest version from:

http://server.ice:8888/svn/ossrepo/icefaces/trunk/icefaces/bridge/lib/extras/autocomplete_ext.js

Please tell how to fix this problem in my existing project. I am using Icefaces 1.8.2 in eclipse galileo.
Where do I find this file autocomplete_ext.js

This still appears to be an issue with 1.8.2EE.

There is an issue. Please check my forum post http://www.icefaces.org/JForum/posts/list/0/16636.page#62154

Hi,
I had the same problem and tried out the fix from the repository. There seems to be one problem with it: If IE8 is set to use Compatibility Mode for all sites or for intranet sites, but set to Standard Mode using a Meta-Tag, the "navigator.userAgent.indexOf("MSIE 8") > -1" part doesn't seem to work because IE8 "pretends" to be IE7.
I think a possible fix would be to use "document.documentMode == 8" instead.

btw, I get a similar problem with the ice:outputStyle tag, it includes the IE7 styles though IE8 is forced to Standard Mode using "<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8" />"

Regards
Lars
