@Mention Autocomplete For Text Field – js-mention

Description:

js-mention is a small JavaScript plugin that adds the @mention autocomplete functionality to a text field you specify. Can be used to mention someone in a text message.

How to use it:

Insert the main JavaScript file ‘mention.js’ into the document when needed.

<script src="mention.js"></script>

Create a normal textarea element where you want to append the @mention autocomplete list to.

<textarea></textarea>

Specify the suggestions for the autocomplete list.

var myMention = new Mention({
    selector: 'textarea',
    options: ['CSS', 'Script', '.Com']
})

Style the autocomplete list in the CSS.

.mention-wrapper {
  position: relative;
  display: block;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
