title: Bootstrap typeahead - How to set the default value manually
body: <p>I tried this: <br/></p>
  
  <pre><code>$("#typeahead_object").val("test");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It only changes the textbox value but doesn't trigger the 'updater' function of the typeahead.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Question :</strong> How can I set the value of a typeahead object manually and trigger its updater function?</p>
