How do I implement onchange of <input type=“text”> with jQuery?

Question

has this API. What about ?

Answer 1

Here's the code I use:

$("#tbSearch").on('change keyup paste', function () {
    ApplyFilter();
});

function ApplyFilter() {
    var searchString = $("#tbSearch").val();
    //  ... etc...
}

This works quite nicely, particularly when paired up with a jqGrid control. You can just type into a textbox and immediately view the results in your jqGrid.
