I recently updated jquery ui and its autocomplete plugin – however in the newer version it won’t let me select the options with a mouse click and I have to use the up and down arrows. How do I re-enable selection via mouse click?
Btw the new version is 1.9.1, old version was 1.8.2
In my case the mouse selection capability was disabled by an outdated third party jQuery plugin. This thread gave me an idea of what might be wrong: http://forum.jquery.com/topic/autocomplete-click-to-select-item-not-working-in-1-9-1
I was using an old version of jquery validation plugin (https://github.com/jzaefferer/jquery-validation). I disabled one plugin after another to see which was causing the misbehaviour.
