Is there a way to bind the change event for a text field in jQuery? I.E. whenever the value changes, call some function? I am currently using keyup
but that doesn't hit every case, i.e. right click and paste.
Thanks.
The change() is an inbuilt method in jQuery that is used to detect the change in value of input fields. This method works only on the “<input>, <textarea> and <select>” elements. Parameter: It accepts an optional parameter “function”. Return Value: It returns the element with the modification.
The val() method returns or sets the value attribute of the selected elements. When used to return value: This method returns the value of the value attribute of the FIRST matched element.
When you dynamically set a value in a textfield using jQuery . val(), you have to manually trigger the . change event if you want to add extra code that trigger when the value of the field change.
$("#element").bind("keyup input paste", function() {
//Do Work Here
});
