I was wondering if the hive mind knew of an open source widget (probably a jquery type thing) that behaves like the google plus invite control

.

That is, textbox autocomplete, but select开发者_运维技巧ed before current choice being typed become their own span in the textbox.

I could do this from scratch but figure I would save some time and see if there was already something like this out there.

This Autosuggest plugin has similar functionality, might be what you're looking for.

Have you looked at jQuery UI's Autocomplete? I think you could make this work without too much extra work.

I know you're asking for jQuery, but if you ever switched libraries (unlikely), or wanted to adapt a current one, take a look at this post; it should be quite easy to adapt MooTools code to jQuery.

And then

I found the jQuery version. This version requires jQuery 1.6.*, but that's as simple as downloading a new release from the jQuery site.
