title: How to create a searchable drop down?
body: <p>I have a very long list of values that I would like to be selected with a drop-down menu with the ability to search items by typing the value as text. For instance, something similar to the search box in <code>www.google.com</code>... How can I do that with <code>jQuery</code>, <code>JavaScript</code>, <code>HTML</code> and <code>bootstrap</code>? Is there a shortcut?</p>
  
  <p>Is it enough to add a class to the following razor view code?</p>
  
  <pre><code>@Html.DropDownListFor(m =&gt; m.MyProperty, fmDataContext.MySelectList, "Select...", new { @class = "form-control" })
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This renders only a normal dropdown and not what I want.</p>
