Scrollable suggestions list

[pdc]

My customer would like to have the list of suggestions show a scrollbar rather than have the suggestions container extend beyond the bottom of the viewpoint. It is possible to make something that looks the part by setting max-height and overflow-y properties on the suggestions-container element. There are two main problems

• selecting a suggestion using the arrow keys does not scroll the list to show the focussed suggestion;
• clicking on the scrollbar collapses the suggestions list on IE.

Is there an easy way to achieve this? Or do I need to dive in to modifying the Autowhatever component?

this seems related to #133

The problem is that when you interact with the suggestions list, it removes focus from the input, which closes the suggestions list. I think the blur() needs to be a bit more sophisticated. It should close the list ONLY when a user interacts with an element outside the entire component, not just when the input is blurred

I believe that this and this will address this issue, so closing this one.
