Patch to add autocomplete support to keywords text field (v1)

Description of problem:
Currently the keywords field is not intuitive and users may not know what the choices are. This patch adds YUI autocomplete support to the keywords field
so that when a user selects the field they get a drop down menu of choices. When they click on a keyword from the menu, it is added to the text field automatically.

This is borrowed from an upstream bug that should be in a future release of Bugzilla by Guy Pyzak.

Hi Dave,

I looked at the back on bz-web1 it looks really nice and works perfect only couple of things:

- the list items has bullet points maybe better to remove them
- The work 'false' always appears at the bottom of the list , not sure what is causing that.

other than than looks good to me.

Regards,
Noura

Hmm, there should not be any bullet points. The javascript/css should remove those and make the list look like a scrolling selection drop down. Did you do a full shift-reload to make sure all CSS and JS were reloaded from the server?

I also do not see the word "false" which may be happening for you due to the above also. Please do the shift-reload and see if it looks better.

Hi Dave,

when trying to add the keywords in a new bug report enter_bug.cgi it works perfect, but still when trying to add them to an already existing bug report i still see the bullet points and the false word ever after shift+reload.

Ah, figured out what I did wrong. I was not loading the stylesheet properly in bug/show.html.tmpl so it should be better now.

Thanks,
