EasyUI is a HTML5 framework for using user interface components based on jQuery, React, Angular, and Vue technologies. It helps in building features for interactive web and mobile applications saving a lot of time for developers.

In this article, we will learn how to design a tagbox using jQuery EasyUI. Tagbox allows the user to display tag labels instead of displaying values on the inputting box.

Approach: First, add jQuery Easy UI scripts needed for your project.

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/jquery.min.js">  </script> <!--jQuery libraries of EasyUI --> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/jquery.easyui.min.js"></script> <!--jQuery library of EasyUI Mobile --> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/jquery.easyui.mobile.js"> </script>

HTML 
<!doctype html>
<html>

<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content=
        "initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, 
        user-scalable=no">

    <!-- EasyUI specific stylesheets-->
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" 
        href="themes/metro/easyui.css">

    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" 
        href="themes/mobile.css">

    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" 
        href="themes/icon.css">

    </script>

    <!-- jQuery libraries of EasyUI -->
    <script type="text/javascript" 
        src="jquery.easyui.min.js">
    </script>

    <!-- jQuery library of EasyUI Mobile -->

        src="jquery.easyui.mobile.js">
    </script>

    <script type="text/javascript">
        $(document).ready(function() {
            $('#gfg').tagbox({
                hasDownArrow: true
            });
        });
    </script>
</head>

<body>
