jQuery Typeahead Tagging

A jQuery plugin to turn a regular input into a tag input with typeahead autocompletion.

Check the example at the project page.

Usage

You need a regular text input.

<input type="text" id="taginput" value="">

And then you initialize the script.

// The source of the tags for autocompletion var tagsource = ['Foo', 'Bar', 'Anoter Tag', 'Even more tags',                  'Such autocomplete', 'Many tags', 'Wow'];  // Turn the input into the tagging input $('#taginput').tagging(tagsource);

There you go. All done.

If you want to limit the maximum amount of tags, that can be added, specify the maximum amount as data attribute.

<!-- this input will only take 3 tags --> <input type="text" data-max-tags="3" id="taginput" value="">

The value of the input will be all tags separated by comma. E.g. Foo,Bar.
