CSS issue on Twitter Typeahead with Bootstrap 3

With the release of Bootstrap 3. Typeahead has been removed in favor of this:
https://github.com/twitter/typeahead.js

Ive integrated it successfully on remote fetching of data

but Im having problem with the autocompletion

enter image description here

as you can see there are two text appearing on the textbox.

I've included the css (https://github.com/jharding/typeahead.js-bootstrap.css) as said in the documentation but no luck.

any help or suggestion would be appreciated.

jsfiddle showing the issue:
http://jsfiddle.net/KrtB5/

HTML

<body>
    <div class="container">
        <label>State</label> <input type="text" class="typeahead form-control" />
    </div>
</body>

Javascript:

$('.typeahead').typeahead({
    name: 'Some name',
    local: ['test', 'abc', 'def']
})

EDIT: Updated for Bootstrap 3.0 EDIT 2: Typeahead call was modified. See new jsfiddle

After playing around with the styling it looks like the form-control class doesn't quite line-up with the tt-hint. So I made sure the margins and borders line up. Taking Hieu Nguyen's answer and adding border-radius and support for input-small/input-large

CSS

.twitter-typeahead .tt-hint
{
    display: block;
    height: 34px;
    padding: 6px 12px;
    font-size: 14px;
    line-height: 1.428571429;
    border: 1px solid transparent;
    border-radius:4px;
}

.twitter-typeahead .hint-small
{
    height: 30px;
    padding: 5px 10px;
    font-size: 12px;
    border-radius: 3px;
    line-height: 1.5;
}

.twitter-typeahead .hint-large
{
    height: 45px;
    padding: 10px 16px;
    font-size: 18px;
    border-radius: 6px;
    line-height: 1.33;
}

Script for input-small/input-large

$('.typeahead.input-sm').siblings('input.tt-hint').addClass('hint-small');
$('.typeahead.input-lg').siblings('input.tt-hint').addClass('hint-large');

No need to go thru any of these complicated implementations, just add

style="position: relative"

To the parent element. It’s using absolute positioning, it just needs to know what “absolute” you’re referring to.

Another approach to make Twitter Typeahead to work with Bootstrap 3.

// Using jQuery, we remove the inline styles compulsively added by Twitter Typeahead.
// We need to do this because, if not, styles on our stylesheets won't be able to
// override those inline styles.
$('.twitter-typeahead, .typeahead').attr('style',''); 

Then, in your LESS stylesheet, you can add the following:

// Twitter Typeahead

.twitter-typeahead {
  position: relative;

  .tt-hint {
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    right: 0;
    bottom: 0;
    left: 0;
    background-color: @input-bg;
    border: none;
  }

  .tt-input {
    position: relative;
    vertical-align: top;
  }

  .tt-hint + .tt-input {
    background-color: transparent;
  }

  .tt-dropdown-menu {
    &:extend(.dropdown-menu all);
  }

  .tt-suggestion {
    &:extend(.dropdown-menu > li > a all);
    p {
      margin-bottom: 0;
    }
  }

  .tt-cursor {
    &:extend(.dropdown-menu > .active > a all);
  }

}

A cleaner Less solution

.tt-small {

    .twitter-typeahead {

        display: block !important; // Note: Override inline styles set by JavaScript

        &> .tt-hint {

            &:extend(.form-control);

            color: @medium-gray;

        }
    }
}

Where the markup looks something like:

<div class="form-group">
    <label class="col-lg-3 col-sm-3 control-label" for="mydropdown">Dropdown</label>
    <div class="col-lg-6 col-sm-6 tt-mydropdown tt-small">
        <input class="form-control" id="mydropdown" placeholder="Dropdown" type="text">
    </div> <!-- tt-small end -->
</div>

From Typeahead problems with Bootstrap 3.0 RC1: As mentioned by [laurent-wartel][2] try https://github.com/hyspace/typeahead.js-bootstrap3.less or https://github.com/bassjobsen/Bootstrap-3-Typeahead for additional CSS to use typeahead.js with Bootstrap 3.1.0.

Or use use the "old" (TB 2) plugin with the new Bloodhound suggestion engine: https://github.com/bassjobsen/Bootstrap-3-Typeahead/issues/26

There's also an unofficial port of the Bootstrap 2 typeahead plugin:

Bootstrap 3 Typeahead

Bootstrap 3 Typeahead

It doesn't require any additional CSS and it works with the latest version of Bootstrap.

Here's a demo on Plunker.

The solution that I came up with, was to simply add another CSS class (from-group-lg) to my form-group element.

My HTML:

<div class="form-group form-group-lg">
  <label class="control-label" for="my-large-typeahead">Type to automcoplete:</label>
  <input type="text" class="form-control typeahead" id="my-large-typeahead">
</div>

In my scss file I added:

.form-group-lg .tt-hint
{
    @extend .input-lg;
}

Based in Andreas's answer I'd bet for the following using less:

.tt-hint { 
   .form-control;
}

If you are using bootstrap.less, you have it much easier. BS 3 installs LESS 1.4.1 which now includes 'extend' goodness. see Less and Bootstrap: how to use a span3 (or spanX [any number]) class as a mixin?

Extend is killer feature for LESS now. You can now fully inherit (explicit named) classes. So no need to copy properties as in Hieu Nguyen's and Nick P's CSS answers. LESS will do it all with:

.twitter-typeahead .tt-hint:extend(.form-control all)
{}

The https://github.com/jharding/typeahead.js-bootstrap.css/blob/master/typeahead.js-bootstrap.less less code is broken for BS 3. I used it as a starting point, and also added making the dropdown not word wrap as per the BS 2 typeahead. My final less file is:

.tt-dropdown-menu
{
    min-width: 160px;
    margin-top: 2px;
    padding: 5px 0;
    /* from BS dropdowns.less .dropdown-menu */
    /* background-color: @dropdownBackground;*/
    background-color: @dropdown-bg;

    /* 
    border: 1px solid #ccc;
    border: 1px solid @dropdownBorder;
    border: 1px solid @dropdownBorder;*/
    border: 1px solid @dropdown-fallback-border; // IE8 fallback
    border: 1px solid @dropdown-border;

    *border-right-width: 2px;
    *border-bottom-width: 2px;

    /*BS2 replaced with BS dropdowns.less .dropdown-menu*/
    /*.border-radius(6px);*/
    border-radius: 6px;

    /*.box-shadow(0 5px 10px rgba(0,0,0,.2));
    -webkit-background-clip: padding-box;
    -moz-background-clip: padding;*/
    .box-shadow(0 6px 12px rgba(0,0,0,.175));

    background-clip: padding-box;

}

.tt-suggestion
{
    display: block;
    padding: 3px 20px;
}

    .tt-suggestion.tt-is-under-cursor
    {
        /*color: @dropdownLinkColorHover;
        #gradient > .vertical(@dropdownLinkBackgroundHover, darken(@dropdownLinkBackgroundHover, 5%));*/
        color: @dropdown-link-hover-color;
        background-color: @dropdown-link-hover-bg;
    }

        .tt-suggestion.tt-is-under-cursor a
        {
            /*color: @dropdownBackground;*/
            color: @dropdown-bg;
        }

    .tt-suggestion > p
    {
        margin: 0;
        white-space: nowrap !important;     //dont conform suggestion to parent input width
    }


/*https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18059161/css-issue-on-twitter-typeahead-with-bootstrap-3*/
.twitter-typeahead
{
    display: block;
    width: 100%; //BS 3 needs this to inherit this for children
}

.twitter-typeahead .tt-hint:extend(.form-control all)
{
    color: @input-color-placeholder; //show hint distinct from input

Hmm it looks like .form-control is a new class in Bootstrap 3 RC and it's a culprit of this issue (no doubt this is only RC version with many issues), you can just copy style of that class to .tt-hint class. So:

.twitter-typeahead .tt-hint {
    display: block;
    height: 38px;
    padding: 8px 12px;
    font-size: 14px;
    line-height: 1.428571429;
    border: 1px solid transparent;
}

Working fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/KrtB5/2/

Update which works better with jQuery 1.9.1 and Bootstrap 3.0.0: http://jsfiddle.net/KrtB5/13

Not only .tt-hint is brocken, but other css-classes too.

The best solution, working in all browsers, is to add the additional css, which repairs the css problems between Typeahead.js and Bootstrap 3:

This worked for me. You may need to play with top and left numbers to get it right.

$('#typeahead').typeahead(...);
$(".tt-hint").css('top','3px');
$(".tt-hint").css('left','1px');
