<script type="text/javascript" src="selectize.js"></script>

<script>
$(function() {
	$('select').selectize(options);
});

Options

General
Option Description Type Default
options An array of the initial available options. By default this is populated from the original input element. array []
items An array of the initial selected values. By default this is populated from the original input element. array []
delimiter The string to separate items by. This option is only used when Selectize is instantiated from a <input type="text"> element. string ','
diacritics Enable or disable international character support. boolean true
create Allows the user to create a new items that aren't in the list of options. This option can be any of the following: "true", "false" (disabled), or a function that accepts two arguments: "input" and "callback". The callback should be invoked with the final data for the option. mixed false
createOnBlur If true, when user exits the field (clicks outside of input or presses ESC) new option is created and selected (if `create`-option is enabled). boolean false
createFilter Specifies a RegExp or String containing a regular expression that the current search filter must match to be allowed to be created. May also be a predicate function that takes the filter text and returns whether it is allowed. mixed null
highlight Toggles match highlighting within the dropdown menu. boolean true
persist If false, items created by the user will not show up as available options once they are unselected. boolean true
openOnFocus Show the dropdown immediately when the control receives focus. boolean true
maxOptions The max number of items to render at once in the dropdown list of options. int 1000
maxItems The max number of items the user can select. int 1
hideSelected If true, the items that are currently selected will not be shown in the dropdown list of available options. boolean false
closeAfterSelect If true, the dropdown will be closed after a selection is made. boolean false
allowEmptyOption If true, Selectize will treat any options with a "" value like normal. This defaults to false to accomodate the common <select> practice of having the first empty option act as a placeholder. boolean false
scrollDuration The animation duration (in milliseconds) of the scroll animation triggered when going [up] and [down] in the options dropdown. int 60
loadThrottle The number of milliseconds to wait before requesting options from the server or null. If null, throttling is disabled. int 300
loadingClass The class name added to the wrapper element while awaiting the fulfillment of load requests. string 'loading'
preload If true, the "load" function will be called upon control initialization (with an empty search). Alternatively it can be set to "focus" to call the "load" function when control receives focus. boolean/string false
dropdownParent The element the dropdown menu is appended to. This should be "body" or null. If null, the dropdown will be appended as a child of the selectize control. string null
addPrecedence Sets if the "Add..." option should be the default selection in the dropdown. boolean false
selectOnTab If true, the tab key will choose the currently selected item. boolean false
Data / Searching
Option Description Type Default
options Options available to select; array of objects. If your element i as <select> with <option>s specified this property gets populated automatically. Setting this property is convenient if you have your data as an array and want to automatically generate the <option>s. array []
optgroups Option groups that options will be bucketed into. If your element is a <select> with <optgroup>s this property gets populated automatically. Make sure each object in the array has a property named whatever "optgroupValueField" is set to. array []
dataAttr The <option> attribute from which to read JSON data about the option. string 'data-data'
valueField The name of the property to use as the "value" when an item is selected. string 'value'
optgroupValueField The name of the option group property that serves as its unique identifier. string 'value'
labelField The name of the property to render as an option / item label (not needed when custom rendering functions are defined). string 'text'
optgroupLabelField The name of the property to render as an option group label (not needed when custom rendering functions are defined). string 'label'
optgroupField The name of the property to group items by. string 'optgroup'
sortField A single field or an array of fields to sort by. Each item in the array should be an object containing at least a "field" property. Optionally, "direction" can be set to "asc" or "desc". The order of the array defines the sort precedence.

		Unless present, a special "$score" field will be automatically added to the beginning
		of the sort list. This will make results sorted primarily by match quality (descending).<br><br>
		

		You can override the "$score" function. For more information, see the <a href="https://github.com/brianreavis/sifter.js#sifterjs">sifter documentation</a>.

		Custom rendering functions. Each function should accept two arguments: "data" and "escape" and return HTML (string) with a single root element.
		The "escape" argument is a function that takes a string and escapes all special HTML characters.
		This is very important to use to prevent XSS vulnerabilities.
