1Select2 2======= 3 4Select2 is a jQuery-based replacement for select boxes. It supports searching, remote data sets, and infinite scrolling of results. 5 6To get started, checkout examples and documentation at http://ivaynberg.github.com/select2 7 8Use cases 9--------- 10 11* Enhancing native selects with search. 12* Enhancing native selects with a better multi-select interface. 13* Loading data from JavaScript: easily load items via ajax and have them searchable. 14* Nesting optgroups: native selects only support one level of nested. Select2 does not have this restriction. 15* Tagging: ability to add new items on the fly. 16* Working with large, remote datasets: ability to partially load a dataset based on the search term. 17* Paging of large datasets: easy support for loading more pages when the results are scrolled to the end. 18* Templating: support for custom rendering of results and selections. 19 20Browser compatibility 21--------------------- 22* IE 8+ 23* Chrome 8+ 24* Firefox 10+ 25* Safari 3+ 26* Opera 10.6+ 27 28Integrations 29------------ 30 31* [Wicket-Select2](https://github.com/ivaynberg/wicket-select2) (Java / [Apache Wicket](http://wicket.apache.org)) 32* [select2-rails](https://github.com/argerim/select2-rails) (Ruby on Rails) 33* [AngularUI](http://angular-ui.github.com/#directives-select2) ([AngularJS](angularjs.org)) 34* [Django](https://github.com/applegrew/django-select2) 35* [Symfony](https://github.com/19Gerhard85/sfSelect2WidgetsPlugin) 36* [Symfony2](https://github.com/avocode/FormExtensions) 37* [Bootstrap](https://github.com/t0m/select2-bootstrap-css) (CSS skin) 38* [Yii](https://github.com/tonybolzan/yii-select2) 39 40Internationalization (i18n) 41--------------------------- 42 43Select2 supports multiple languages by simply including the right 44language JS file (`select2_locale_it.js`, `select2_locale_nl.js`, etc.). 45 46Missing a language?
