Chosen jQuery Plugin

I just came across the Chosen JavaScript plugin, thanks to a link on the excellent CSS-Tricks RSS feed. It’s a jQuery / Prototype plugin which turns regular HTML <select> dropdown boxes into functional uber-awesome units of happiness.

Previously, I’ve tended to opt for either standard dropdown select boxes or something like the

jQuery UI Autocomplete (still awesome if the list you’re selecting is massive). I think Chosen will become a standard include on every website I do from now on though, very impressed…
