<div class="intro">
<p>
This example uses the Flickr Search API (via YQL) to allow the user to select photo results based on a search query. After each photo is selected, it's added to the collection of photos displayed below the input field.
</p>

<p>
A custom `resultFormatter` is used to format the Flickr results in the AutoComplete dropdown list, and a custom `select` event handler is used to override the default selection logic.
</p>

<p>
<strong>Note:</strong> If the Flickr API is unavailable, you can <a href="?mock=true">try this example with mock data</a>. Try typing in "a" to see the results.
