For example, I have
<label class="form">Menu</label>
<select id="selection" name="select" required>
<option value="" selected>--Select an Option--</option>
<option value="option1">Option 1</option>
<option value="option2">Option 2</option>
...
</select>
This would only give a a drop down menu when the user clicks on the input box with their mouse. But I want to give them the option to be able to type in the input box such as:
If the user types in option1
it would direct them to the "Option 1" drop-down menu, etc. And if the user types in any other words that are not included in the drop-down list it would show "Invalid Input".
Yes there is! A text input with a list attribute:
<input type="text" name="city" list="cityname">
<datalist id="cityname">
<option value="Boston">
<option value="Cambridge">
</datalist>
EDIT: for the autocomplete, try Bootstrap Typeahead
