TextExt – Smarter Text Input Fields With jQuery

January 28, 2012 | JavaScript

TextExt is a feature-rich jQuery plugin for improving the functionality of text input fields.

The plugin is modular, can be extended easily and has features like tag inputs, filtering, auto-complete, placeholder text and Ajax (which are all plugins of TextExt).

It can also display a custom arrow besides select fields, show the items in them as suggestions-while-typing and more.

TextExt is very well-documented, regularly improved and has too many examples to start with.
