When searching for a value I get a single return in the dynamic list box, but when I select it, the field turn pink and 'Invalid Value' appears - How do I select the value?

This bug is a result of your Internet Explorer/Firefox settings.

When you are searching for a value within a field with dynamic list functionality, the values that meet your criteria will be displayed in a drop down list below the field. When there is only one value that meets your search it should appear in a single row.

However, if your IE/Firefox setting are set to retain a record of previous text searches within this field, then the value will be partially obscured by another box showing the previous search.

When you select the previous text search the system does not recognise the value and an error message appears.
