First of all, I don't know if this is a CiviCRM issue or a CCK issue, and wether it is a options or text widget issue in that case.

When typing a CCK Contact Reference name into the auto-complete text field cck field type, the auto complete function adds [cid:#] to the end of the name where # is the contact id of the user referenced, like: "Doe, John [cid:2]". When attempting to save node, drupal outputs this error: "[contact reference fieldname here]: found no valid post with that title.". If I erase the [cid:#] from the field and save I get no error, and the contact is referenced correctly.

If I edit the node after saving, I will once again have the [cid:#] appended to the name and I will not be able to save.

I'm running civiCRM in a separate database in multilingual mode (not sure if that matters). CCK version 6.x-2.2, 2.3 and latest dev has same issue.

Can some genius please tell me what to do? ;)
Thanks!

You need to post this on whatever module is creating the contact reference field. That is not a core CCK field.
