Bootstrap's typeahead is deprecated in Bootstrap 3 #57

Closed zafire06 closed 11 years ago

zafire06 commented 11 years ago

Bootstrap's typeahead is going to be deprecated in Bootstrap 3 in favor of Twitter's more powerful typeahead plug-in. (The current version we're using is 2 something.) That is, if we are going to upgrade Bootstrap, we would need to look into typeahead carefully—that is, for one thing we need to include Twitter's typeahead plug-in in place of Bootstrap's.

I am avoiding the jQuery UI autocomplete for consistency in the webpage style.

—We are not going to update any time soon.

Just to add a little more context: I modified the typeahead function in Bootstrap's main Javascript file a little bit, so that it would still do lookup even though the field is empty. We need that so that the user does not need to type in anything in the species field to select the species.
