JQuery: detect change in input field [duplicate]

by

You can bind the ‘input’ event to the textbox. This would fire every time the input changes, so when you paste something (even with right click), delete and type anything.

$('#myTextbox').on('input', function() {
    // do something
});

If you use the change handler, this will only fire after the user deselects the input box, which may not be what you want.

There is an example of both here: http://jsfiddle.net/6bSX6/
