Chosen is a jQuery plugin that makes long, unwieldy select boxes much more user-friendly. Chosen automatically highlights selected options and removes disabled options. Chosen automatically sets the default field text ("Choose a country...") by reading the select element's data-placeholder value. If no data-placeholder value is present, it will default to "Select an Option" or "Select Some Options" depending on whether the select is single or multiple. You can change these elements in the plugin js file as you see fit.

Features

  • All modern desktop browsers are supported
  • Customize select boxes to highlight selected options and remove disabled option
  • Change selection elements in the plugin js
  • Choose and limit how many options the user can select
  • Use labels just like you would a standard select
