jQuery get input value after keypress

by

Realizing that this is a rather old post, I’ll provide an answer anyway as I was struggling with the same problem.

You should use the "input" event instead, and register with the .on method. This is fast – without the lag of keyup and solves the missing latest keypress problem you describe.

$('#dSuggest').on("input", function() {
    var dInput = this.value;
    console.log(dInput);
    $(".dDimension:contains('" + dInput + "')").css("display","block");
});
