How To add a placeholder to jQuery Tokeninput?

Question

How can I add a placeholder to a jQuery Tokeninput field? A normal placeholder attribute won't work in here.

Answer 1

For a input like:

<input type="text" id="myInput" />

You can do:

$("#myInput").tokenInput("/scripts/myjson.js");
$("#token-input-myInput").attr("placeholder", "Type here");

When you use tokenInput, it changes your input's id to "token-input-XXX", where XXX is the previous id
