JavaScript Mention is an autocomplete-like control for tagging or selecting a user or group from a suggestion list. The control opens a suggestion list when a user starts typing with the ‘@’ character, just like on popular social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, and more. It supports several out-of-the-box features: data binding, grouping, UI customization, accessibility, and more.
The JavaScript Mention control seamlessly works with local and remote data sources such as an array of primitive data, data sets of complex items, JSON data collections, and remote data sources.
Tag or select a user or group from the suggestion list when composing content in the Rich Text Editor.
Easy to integrate with editable controls such as text area, text box, and div elements with content-editable set to true.
