Sorry but I don't understand.

1. Could you tell which are you using - FCKeditor or CKEditor? First one is not supported anymore.
2. Could you provide step by step scenario explaining what to do to get error and whet exactly error is?

The Problem is with the Scroll bar which is automatically scrolling to FCK Editor's starting point (Top position)after the user selects some item from the suggestion box. But Actally the scroll bar should be at the same position where user selects the item. And Cursor is also missing after the selection. But the Scroll bar is moving to the FCK Editor starting point after the selection of the item.

Please see the below demo to understant the problem clearly.

FCKeditor was retired and is no longer supported. All active development was moved to its successor, ​CKEditor 3.x, that is a fully mature and far superior product. We recommend you upgrade as soon as possible

1. FCKeditor was retired and is no longer supported. We will have v4 released soon and you are still using version 2. You should think about upgrading.

2. You say that you lose focus whenever you select something from your custom box. Well this does not happen with FCKeditor dialogs. Perhaps you should copy this behaviour. You could try implementing your toolbox as FCKeditor dialog plugin which pops out when '[[' is entered. Another solution might be perhaps getting the selection before your custom toolbox is opened and then restoring this selection to editor when this dialog is closed.
