Description:
------------
the function auto completion feature on php.net promises to be excellent.  This might not be a bug, but its operation is not as I expected intuitively.

Expected result:
----------------
If I enter for example 'int' and want to look up the intval function, it appears quite low down the list.  Moving a mouse over the list gives the appearance (reinforced by the links appearing in the status bar) that the items in the list should be clickable.  

Actual result:
--------------
Clicking on an item in the list produces no result.

Can you tell us what OS/Browser are you running ?

Well, this is 'intended' behaviour, and was reported in previous bug reports. The layer need to be removed if someone does not want to work with the function list anymore. Currently the script is too dumb to know that you actually clicked into the dropdown, and removes the dropdown in every case when the input field loses focus. As we expected this feature to be used by keyboard oriented people, we have not taken this problem into account enough. It will probably be fixed in the next version of the script.

Marking the bug bogus, because a bug is alredy open containing this problem (and more).
