There was a question related to <datalist> regarding HTML 5.
Question: Is it necessary to have <input> tag for <datalist> usage or The search bar in the output is due to the <input> tag?
Answer: Yes, the <input> tag is a must before <datalist> tag, this is because if you don't use <input> tag, then there will be no data list in the output.
Reference code: (WITHOUT INPUT TAG)
<!DOCTYPE html> <html><head><title></title></head> <body> <form action="" method=""> <datalist id="list">
<option value="a"> <option value="b"> <option value="c"> <option value="d"> </datalist> </form> </body> </html>
Output:

| Nothing in the output _ blank |
Do you see anything in the output ? No, right?

<!DOCTYPE html> <html><head><title></title></head> <body> <form > <input list="list"> <datalist id="list"> <option value="a"> <option value="b"> <option value="c"> <option value="d"> </datalist> </form> </body> </html>
Now the output:
when you click the arrow, you will get something like:
