I have this working fine with inline editing, but no autocomplete window is showing if I use the main modal editor. The autocomplete is making its ajax calls correctly, just the results window isn't showing. Is this a known issue or am I missing something?

Could you post a link to a page showing the issue so I can check it out please?

Thanks,

there seems to be a problem with z-index the list is there but behind the modal

this fixed the problem
.ui-autocomplete { position: absolute; cursor: default;z-index:2500 !important;}

This not fix the issue. Only first use is valid.
When editor is invoked, the div containing it gets a z-index of 101 (picture1), and if you make changes in autocomplete field the options are correctly showed at z-index of 2500 (picture2).
But after options in autocomplete field (Efternamn in link example) are showed at z-index 2500, if you click on editor dialog box then editor div goes to z-index of 2501 (one more than maximal index in web). (picture3).
So next time autocomplete field is invoked, it is showed under editor again. It's neccessary to move the editor box to find the options. (picture4)
