The current element as its Event function param

Question

I\'ve got an element

On this, there is an Event

onChange=\"myfunction(param)\".

Answer 1

To get the .value inline, it would look like this:

<input type="text" onchange="myfunction(this.value)" />

Answer 2

Inside an inline event handler, this will refer to the DOM element.

Therefore, you can write onchange="myfunction(this)" to pass the DOM element itself to the function.

Answer 3

You can pass this to myFunction which will be the input

<input type="text" onChange="myfunction(this)" />

then myFunction could look like this:

function myFunction(obj)
{
    var value = obj.value; // the value of the textbox
}
