Finally we managed to solve this problem by changing some code in suggestionbox.js. We are now only focussing in 'onblur, if it's not an IE (starting at line 266): if (RichFaces.navigatorType() != "MSIE") { | offsets["x"] = 0; | offsets["y"] = 0; | if (event.clientX > offsets["x"] && event.clientX < (this.update.clientWidth + offsets["x"])) { | if (event.clientY > (offsets["y"] - this.update.clientHeight) && event.clientY < offsets["y"]) { | this.element.focus(); | return; | } | } | } For us this works. Whether there are other issues now, I can't say. We are using the 3.0.1 Snapshot of Richfaces.
