Somehow the contented7 update from 4.7 to 5.x broke the autocomplete fields, such as author, and anything else that retrieves a dropdown list for pre-poulatable fields. Other themes seem to work fine (eg. Garland).

Is there a configuration setting that I missed during the upgrade?

crap, just fixed it - turns out that page.tpl.php did not have the scripts loaded!! Just make sure that the header is as follows:

<head profile="http://gmpg.org/xfn/11">
  <title><?php print $head_title ?></title>
  <?php print $head ?>
  <?php print $styles ?>
  <?php print $scripts ?>
</head>

And now everything works :-)

hope to know more detail: are you using the 4.7.x package for drupal 5.x? i have already release the 5.x package, which contain that line.

if you are using the old version, suggest to use 5.x package. it is now completely rewritten for enhancement, and also some bug fix.
if you are using the latest version for 5.x, please report the problem if it is still happening ;-)

i check the code again during release a stable release for 4.7.x and 5.x. the line <?php print $scripts ?> is existing. this shouldn't be a bug, and so this thread will be closed
