I use an autocomplete field submission form. A problem facing users is that when they type in text and press "enter," the first item in the autocomplete menu will be submitted instead of whatever text they typed in. If moving the mouse over another dropdown item and pressing "enter" or the mouse if clicked will select that item-which works well. But it's... Is it not possible to automatically highlight the first item of the auto-complete field so that if you press "enter," the text you typed in will be sent instead of the first item of the auto-complete field?
