From the makers of the phenomenal Chosen jquery plugin.

Hopefully this is indicative of the quality of this library! I'll definitely try it out this morning.

I prefer Select2 over Chosen
The problem with Select2 is that users are now _required_ to have js on to just use a silly dropdown. Chosen actually degrades gracefully.
Yeah, and they lie in their first example. The "example code" is nothing like their real demo code. If it was, you'd be able to use their select boxes if you had JS disabled...
which you need in a lot of cases for search engine crawlability.
I'm using Select2 on my site http://gitignore.io/ and it's been awesome so far.
Just a side note, it took me a few tries to hit "OSX." My first two tries were "OS X" and "Mac OS X", before I noticed something was coming up and disappearing when I typed the "OS X"
That's neat, but howcome something like Django doesn't "inherit" from the Python preset?
Why? I haven't used either yet so it'd be interesting to hear your reasoning.
IE7 support, better AJAX support and a ton more options.
Also, Chosen only works with the <option> tags, which can be quite annoying. And to me, the Select2 community seems a lot more active and able to participate in the project.
