Easy Data Binding Plugin For jQuery - databind.js

A lightweight jQuery data bindng plugin that makes it easy to bind data to elements using only HTML data attributes. 

How to use it:

1. To begin with, include the databind.js plugin after jQuery.

<script src="/path/to/cdn/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="/path/to/jquery.databind.min.js"></script>

2. Add the [data-bind="[$fieldName]"] attribute to the elements as follows:

<input type="text" data-bind="field-example">
<span class="bindSpan" data-bind="field-example"></span>
<select data-bind="field-example">
  <option value=""></option>
  <option value="1">1</option>
  <option value="2">2</option>
  <option value="3">3</option>
</select>
...

3. Extract the text from the option tag instead of its value attritbue:

<select data-bind="field-otion">
  <option value=""></option>
  <option value="1">label 1</option>
  <option value="2">label 2</option>
  <option value="3">label 3</option>
</select>
<input type="text" data-bind="field-otion" data-bind-option-text>

4. Enable an element to toggle the visibility of your elements.

<input type="radio" name="display-example" value="1" checked>
<input type="radio" name="display-example" value="2">

<span data-display="display-example:1">Display content 1</span>
<span data-display="display-example:2">Display content 2</span>

5. Enable the Display Only mode using the display-only class.

<input type="text" class="display-only" value="display-only input">
<select class="display-only">
  <option value=""></option>
  <option value="1" selected>label 1</option>
  <option value="2">label 2</option>
  <option value="3">label 3</option>
</select>
<input type="radio" name="display-only-demo" class="display-only" value="1">
<input type="radio" name="display-only-demo" class="display-only" value="2" checked>
<input type="radio" name="display-only-demo" class="display-only" value="3">
<input type="checkbox" name="display-only-demo" class="display-only" value="1">
<input type="checkbox" name="display-only-demo" class="display-only" value="2" checked>
<input type="checkbox" name="display-only-demo" class="display-only" value="3" checked>
