Include jquery, bsmSelect, and css in document head:
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.bsmselect.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="jquery.bsmselect.css" />
Use a jQuery selector in your document ready function:
jQuery(function($) {
$("select[multiple]").bsmSelect();
});
If desired, you can specify options when you call the plugin:
jQuery(function($) {
$("select[multiple]").bsmSelect({
addItemTarget: 'top'
});
});
The newly created select default option is the original select title attribute:
<select name="cities" multiple="multiple" title="Please select a city">
...
</select>
- jQuery 1.4+ (you might need a newer version for IE9 compatibility)
