Bootstrap Typeahead.js

I have been trying to get the bootstrap typeahead to work, with no luck whatsoever. I have pasted the code I have. I have reference Jquery-1.9.1 and typeahead.js. What am I doing wrong? Your help is much appreciated! Thanks.

Solution

  • It looks like you're getting confused between typeahead.js (by Twitter) and Twitter Bootstrap's Typeahead feature

    You're including the library for typeahead.js

    <script src="Scripts/typeahead.js-master/src/typeahead.js"></script>

    but trying to use it like Twitter Bootstrap's typeahead feature.

    Make sure you're including the Twitter Bootstrap library, if you want to use your current code:

    <script type="text/javascript" 
     src="//netdna.bootstrapcdn.com/twitter-bootstrap/2.3.2/js/bootstrap.min.js">
</script>
