AutoComplete " Cannot read property 'label' of null"

[nauman.qazi@…]

Hello, I am using jQuery UI 1.8.18 so i can use autocomplete function. It works fine but at times, it throws excpetion from following method ,(line 6668)

$.extend( $.ui.autocomplete, {
	escapeRegex: function( value ) {
		return value.replace(/[-[\]{}()*+?.,\\^$|#\s]/g, "\\$&");
	},
	filter: function(array, term) {
		var matcher = new RegExp( $.ui.autocomplete.escapeRegex(term), "i" );
		return $.grep( array, function(value) {
			return matcher.test( /*value.label || value.value || */ value );//exception is here if i uncomment
		});
	}
});

Exception is " Cannot read property 'label' of null". As you can see that I have commented out the value.label and value.value for timebeing, it seems to be working fine.

Yet I am unclear of two things 1 - Why is this error happen some textboxes and not on others? 2 - Is it already fixed in new UI versions?

Thanks

I had the same issue, and the solution is avoid including 'null' data into the data source list.
