About

TextExt is a plugin for jQuery which is designed to provide functioanlity such as tag input and autocomplete.

The core design principle behind TextExt is modularity and extensibility. Each piece of functionality is separated from the main core and can act individually and together with other plugins.

Modular design allows you easily turn a standard HTML text input into a wide range of modern, taylored to your needs data inputs without bloating your source code and slowing down your site with the code that you aren't using.

A wide number of plugins are available including Tags, Autocomplete, Filter, Ajax as well as a few which are purely asthetical like Focus.

<textarea id="textarea" rows="1"></textarea>

<script type="text/javascript">
    $('#textarea').textext({
        plugins : 'tags prompt focus autocomplete ajax',

        prompt : 'Add one...',
        ajax : {
            url : '/manual/examples/data.json',
