Twitter Bootstrap Typeahead - Id & Label

Question

I\'m using Bootstrap 2.1.1 and jQuery 1.8.1 and trying to use Typeahead\'s functionality.

I try to display a label and use an id li

Answer 1

The selected answer is a bit of a hack. I was looking for the same thing, and this approach works beautifully:

https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/3682

It keeps two arrays, one for the name that typeahead shows, and one for the object from which the name is extracted. When one of the options is selected, it uses the name to find the object from whence it came.
