Click events leaking through to underlying elements

[IanMcGarryWWU]

Since the code uses mousedown not click to pick up the selections of the suggestions the click event then fires on whatever happens to be underneath the suggestion.

This confused the hell out of me for ages. I guess it doesn't matter if whatever is under it isn't responsive to clicks but for me it was closing the entire form every time I selected a suggestion.

You can try to quickfix it by adding stopPropagation().
If you're using the autocomplete.min.js , you can search for:

... n("autocomplete-suggestion","mousedown",function(e){if(t(this,"autocomplete-suggestion")) ...

And add it like this:

... n("autocomplete-suggestion","mousedown",function(e){e.stopPropagation();if(t(this,"autocomplete-suggestion")) ...

Helped me with the same problem - closes my dropdown, which includes the searchfield everytime when I clicked a suggestion.
