	}
});

##Defaults / options

$.fastsearch.defaults = {
    wrapSelector: 'form', // fastsearch container defaults to closest form. Provide selector for something other
    url: null, // plugin will get data from data-url propery, url option or container action attribute
    responseType: 'JSON', // default expected server response type - can be set to html if that is what server returns
    preventSubmit: false, // prevent submit of form with enter keypress

    minQueryLength: 2, // minimal number of characters needed for plugin to send request to server

    template: null, // provide your template function if you need one - function(data, fastsearchApi)
    mouseEvents: !('ontouchstart' in window || navigator.maxTouchPoints > 0 || navigator.msMaxTouchPoints > 0), // detect if client is touch enabled so plugin can decide if mouse specific events should be set.
