Tagdragon supports jQuery 1.4 and 1.4.1 »

Despite making heavy use of jQuery, I managed to completely miss the January 1.4 and 1.4.1 releases. Luckily, TagDragon, the autosuggest component that I sell as donationware, works without change using jQuery 1.4.1.
Despite not marketing it anywhere (other than this blog) and free alternatives, I'm happy with the sales results of this component. It is modest but more than expected. I think this component shines in its robustness, looks, and ease of use. Why don't you give it a try?

Thanks. Its kind of a long story. It has to do with the way various browsers treat and trigger the onblur event. It was a while since I last dived into it, but I remember having a choice between two evils:
- Clicking away closes the suggestion list, but then it retriggers the suggestion after selecting a value from the list in IE
- The current behavior, which does not close the list unless you select a value or enter a different field
I wasted a few nights on this bug and still have not squashed it. I hope I can solve it once I have some time on my hands, but I'm slightly pessimistic about it.
I'll give you TagDragon for free if you manage to squash the bug
