----------------------------------------

Thanks Atul,

Maybe it help, but as it does not fix the issue I reported, I can't say (I can't use lookups in IE8)

> I did a small extention to lookup autocompleter code and now it is able to load description for the lookup field values.
> For example when you load a form with lookup fields, currently you see only the Id in the lookup field (which is not very descriptive). After applying the patch, you will see also a description, next to lookup button. The description value is the same one that appears in the autocompler and it is specifiued for in each lookup screen.
> You will see the description also when a value is returned from a lookup screen or when a value is selected from autocompleter or when you type a valid Id in the lookup field.
> Internally it does an ajax call to get the description for the supplied value in lookup field.
> I'd like to know if you want to see this feature in ofbiz and/or if you have any ideas to improve it.
