When using the default list forms and they include a people picker field, the dropdown list of options as you type to search for people works as expected. If you create a new custom list form in SharePoint Designer, the same people picker field does't have the dropdown list of options as you type. This basically forces the person completing the form to use the address icon to then search for the person, select them, and then acknowledge that's who they want. Anyone know what to replace the form field with so that it restores the in-line dropdown option? Here's the default code in a new list custom form for a people picker field:
<SharePoint:FormField runat="server" id="ff6{$Pos}" ControlMode="New" FieldName="Attendee" __designer:bind="{ddwrt:DataBind('i',concat('ff6',$Pos),'Value','ValueChanged','ID',ddwrt:EscapeDelims(string(@ID)),'@Attendee')}"/>
<SharePoint:FieldDescription runat="server" id="ff6description{$Pos}" FieldName="Attendee" ControlMode="New"/>
Any help would be greatly appreciated ;)
