My problem is this: I need to update some text in a div with the value of what the mouse pointer is hovering over in the autocomplete drop down list.

Can it be done easily, or do I have to make fundamental changes to the Autocomplete plugin?

I am using the jQuery Autocomplete plugin version 1.1 by Jörn Zaefferer.

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated!
