    noMatchText: 'No matching entries', // set custom text for nav items with no content to show
    showCounts: true,      // Show the number of list items that match that letter above the mouse
    dontCount: ''          // A comma separated list of selectors you want to exclude from the count function (numbers on top of navigation)
    cookieName: null,      // Set this to a string to remember the last clicked navigation item requires jQuery Cookie Plugin ('myCookieName')
    onClick: null,         // Set a function that fires when you click a nav item. see Demo 5
    prefixes: [],          // Set an array of prefixes that should be counted for the prefix and the first word after the prefix ex: ['the', 'a', 'my']
