Tags input : Added some features i needed for my use, based on Fat https://gist.github.com/2411033 implementation like : comma will now trigger a new tag, a cloned input is created and original input gets updated with tags value, some css tweaks...

bootstrap-tokenahead.js

!function ($) {
 
  "use strict"; // jshint ;_;
