Why do you use mirroredElem in Autocomplete...?

Hi Phuoc.

Just to say what a great collection you have. I found your Autocomplete solution via Google and it's great. I always strive for simplicity and I found other similar solutions where people use so much code for something quite straightforward, and then I found your excellent example :)

Now to my question. Why do you use mirroredEle in this solution? First I thought that you use it to show formatted text, ex to highlight replaced words with css. Can you explain your idea behind it, thanks?

Found the answer in your other post. You create a fake cursor with mirroredEle, nice idea :)
It would be great to add also some styling to the replaced words. That's something I will explore further.
