Feature Request - keypress event (or keydown) to allow dynamically updating list by Ajax
I need to dynamically populate a list of options into chosen drop-down from a server - as user types.
Ajax part of it (jQuery requests sent to ASP.NET MVC controller) is obvious. I also understand that as soon as jQuery receives results I can repopulated underlying HTML select box and then run $("#form_field").trigger("chosen:updated");
But is there an easy and standard way of binding event handler to keypress (or keydown) event as user types? Again, I can probably find that DIV element generated by chosen and use its events, but maybe there is an easier way chosen itself exposes?
I'm also interested in this. Events in chosen are not well documented.
