How to Use select2.js

html, jquery, jquery-chosen, jquery-select2

Solution

Add the attribute "multiple", and a width as well, only in the markup.

<select multiple id="e1" style="width:300px">

and js as this:

$(document).ready(function() { 
 $("#e1").select2();
});

A side note; you are loading select2.js 2 times in the code posted in your question.

I want to add a form field which can auto fill text & can take multiple tabs(similar to fb). I found select2.js helps me do it, But i am having problems in using it when i set multiple attribute to true. if i add multiple: true, the page dispalys it as a normal select. I find documentation on select2 page confusing. I am a new to all of them, Please help me out. ``` <html> <head> <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="select2.js"></script> <link href="select2.css" rel="stylesheet"/> <script src="select2.js"></script> <script> $(document).ready(function() { $("#e1").select2([multiple: true]); }); </script> </head> <body> <input type="button" id="123">click </br> <input type="hidden" id="1234"> <select id="e1"> <option value="AL">Alabama</option> <option value="Am">Amalapuram</option> <option value="An">Anakapalli</option> <option value="Ak">Akkayapalem</option> <option value="WY">Wyoming</option> </select> </body> </html> ```
