Compatibility with <code><input type="text" /></code>

<p class="alert alert-warning">
<a href="announcements-4.0.html#hidden-input" class="alert-link">Deprecated in Select2 4.0.</a>
It is now encouraged to use the <code><select></code> tag instead.
</p>
<p>
In past versions of Select2, a <code><select></code> element could
only be used with a limited subset of options. An
<code><input type="hidden" /></code> was required instead, which did
not allow for a graceful fallback for users who did not have JavaScript
enabled. Select2 now supports the <code><select></code> element for
all options, so it is no longer required to use <code><input /></code>
elements with Select2.
