I noticed that the autocomplete feature for Goto (CTRL+g) and Move (CTRL+m) only activated when pressing Enter, and not when pressing Tab. I've gotten very used to pressing tab to finish autocomplete lists in search boxes, Launchy, gmail, Firefox address bar, etc. that I decided to change it (having no javascript experience!)

Basically I found the part that listens to the key presses for the autocomplete box... commented out the code that disables the Tab key within the autocomplete text box and then added code similar to that for pressing "Enter" except using the "Tab" keycode instead.

Here's the final bit of code (starting at line 668):

var _handleKeyPressEvent = function(event)
{
currentText = inputField.value;
//if (event.keyCode == 9) // Tab
//{
// if (window.utility)
// {
// window.utility.stopEvent(event);
// }
//
// return false;
//}
//else if (autocompleteList.isVisible)
if (autocompleteList.isVisible)
{
if (event.keyCode == 13)// Enter
{
autocompleteList.parent.doCallback();
}
if (event.keyCode == 9)// Tab
{
autocompleteList.parent.doCallback();
}
