How to change textbox value on select event with autocomplete (jQuery UI)

Question

Why won\'t #input-myBox clear when I select an item? It seems autocomplete is preventing my .val(\'\') to work so how can I workaround this?

Answer 1

Is it #input-mybox (lowercase b) or #input-myBox (uppercase b) ?

This might be your problem :)

Edit: rob beat me to it
