Search breaks with jquery.hotkeys plugin

[mortenbock]

It might be jquery.hotkeys that's to blame, but the search function seems to break when both are installed.

The hotkeys plugin seems to intercept all keypress events, and is not able to correctly propagate the event back to Chosen.

If it cannot be fixed, maybe this issue can help others figure out why it's not working.

I think it is an issue with the jquery.hotkeys plugin being too aggressive in the way it modifies the event binding. It seems to break all plugins using event namespaces when binding their listener, by assuming that thiese namespaces are alays used to restrict the keys being listened to.
You should report it back to the plugin maintainer

Thanks for reporting this to let others know, @mortenbock. Closing the issue, though, per @stof's recommendation that this is probably an issue with jquery.hotkeys. We'll reopen if you come back with more information to the contrary.

I had this same issue and switched to mousetrap.js instead of hotkeys and was able to get the same functionality without the chosen conflict: http://craig.is/killing/mice
