Introduction
Chosen is a Javascript plugin that enhance the existing select boxes. So, why using Chosen Javascript plugin?
- The Select boxes we have is inconsistent across different browsers
- It's not user friendly in multiple select. (Press CTRL and select)
- Not suitable for really long list. (eg, country, jobs)
Above reasons are pretty convincing aren't there? Chosen can solve all those problems by adding tag-based multiple select (the one we all used on facebook to select multiple friends), and a search field to tackle long list and last and not least, it can be themed and would appear identical across different browsers.
