This control is quite easy for users to understand and use. Also it is possible to work with very large multi-selects without confusing the user.

This version differes from the parent in that it works with json data pulls. Both the php/yii wrapper and the actual Javascript have been updated to get this working.

echo ssimpson\duallistbox\Widget::widget([
    'model' => $model,
    'attribute' => 'list_regions',
    'title' => 'Example Title',
    'data' => $region,

model - model for form attribute - model attribute for form title - view name for attribute

data - model (Region::find()->all()) OR array\['id'=>1,'name'=>''\]; **This is a change from the upstream project.**data\_id - name attribute for id data\_value - name attribute for value

#### sample json data

[](#sample-json-data)

```

[
    {
        "index": 0,
        "name": "Peters Sloan",
        "company": "Kongle",
        "email": "peterssloan@kongle.com",
        "selected": true
    },
    {
        "index": 1,
        "name": "Bailey Hoffman",
        "company": "Centrexin",
        "email": "baileyhoffman@centrexin.com"
    },
    {
