The plugin works by proving a true `<input type=\"text\" />` only for individual tag creation. Tags are then placed into their DOM container element, which is just a `<div>` to hold them in place. The actual data only exists as an array of `tag` objects attached to the DOM node you called `tagThis()` on, which can then be [sent via AJAX](https://github.com/dangribbin/jQuery-Tag-This#accessing-tags). There is no `<form>` element involved.\r\n\r\nYou could do what you're asking by providing [a callback function](https://github.com/dangribbin/jQuery-Tag-This#callbacks) (which gives you access to the entire array of tags) that does what you need it to when your tags array is modified.
