Simple Combo is a jQuery-based combo box widget that is
- simple
- lightweight
- consistent with native widget look and feel
with simpleCombo, you can turn select lists into combo boxes like this:
$(
selector).simpleCombo();
Simple combo boxes are normal select lists with one extra feature: you can type directly into the combo box to add an extra option, which is automatically selected.
Since these combo boxes are actually just select lists plus JavaScript, they look exactly like regular select lists. They can be styled, resized, etc. with no visual glitches.
Add combo box functionality to all select lists with the allow-edit
class.
$('select.allow-edit').simpleCombo();
- On Safari, characters cannot be entered when the combo is expanded.
- Only regular ascii characters can be entered: no accented letters or non-Latin characters.
