About the Autocomplete Widget

How to use the Autocomplete:

Typing into the text field will generate a dropdown list with auto-complete suggestions. The suggestions can be navigated using the arrow keys and selected using the Enter key.

Autocomplete feedback is provided through an ARIA live region. To be announced properly, it must be used with an ARIA compliant browser and a screen reader that runs in (auto) forms mode or application mode.
