Select2
Select2 is a jQuery based replacement for select boxes. It supports searching, remote data sets, and pagination (infinite scrolling) of results. Read the Official Select2 Documentation for a full list of instructions and other options.
Basic Usage
Select2 was designed to be a replacement for the standard <select>
box that is displayed by the browser. By default it supports all options and operations that are available in a standard select box, but with added flexibility.
With Search
Select2 by default does have a search box displayed but most of the time this template uses select2 without a search.
Disabled States
Select2 will respond to the disabled attribute on select elements. You can also initialize Select2 with disabled: true
to get the same effect.
Multiple Box
Select2 also supports multi-value select boxes. The select below is declared with the multiple attribute.
Clearable Selection
When set to true, causes a clear button close icon to appear on the select box when a value is selected. Clicking the clear button will clear the selected value, effectively resetting the select box back to its placeholder value.
Limit Selection
Select2 multi-value select boxes can set restrictions regarding the maximum number of options that can be selected.
