Refresh Method

Calling refresh allows you to re-build the multiselect menu from your original select. This is useful when the contents of the select box changes dynamically (through either AJAX, DOM manipulation, etc.) and you want the multiselect widget to reflect the changes.

// once the "add" button is clicked below:
$("select").multiselect('refresh');
