[![GitHub pull requests](https://img.shields.io/github/issues-pr/nobleclem/jQuery-MultiSelect.svg)](https://github.com/nobleclem/jQuery-MultiSelect/pulls)Turn a multiselect list into a nice and easy to use list with checkboxes. This plugin is simply an alternative interface for the native select list element. When you check an option in the plugin the value is selected on the native list. This allows the value to be submitted in a form as well as retreived through normal POST/GET and javascript methods.
## Support
I only provide limited support through the Github Issues area. DO NOT ask for support via email, socialmedia, or other means. Also check the closed issues before opening a new issue.## Design Methodology
This plugin is not meant to be a full featured multiselect plugin. I envision this as a multiselect plugin that contains a base set of features that can be enhanced using callbacks by the developer. Because of this I am hesitant on adding functionality but am open to adding callbacks where it makes sense. But feel free to open an [issue](https://github.com/nobleclem/jQuery-MultiSelect/issues) and suggest a feature request if you feel that most people will benefit from it.## Demo

- *Set the second parameter to `false` to append to the list. (default = true)*
- *Set the third parameter to `false` to leave the native select list as is. (default = true)**This will NOT modify the original select list element.*
```
$('select[multiple]').multiselect( 'loadOptions', [{

},{

}]);
```**settings**

*This will reload the plugin for the select list it references*
`$('select[multiple]').multiselect( 'settings', {
columns: 2
});`**unload**

This is a quick unload/load while maintaining options during plugin initialization.
