val() doesn’t trigger change() in jQuery

by

onchange only fires when the user types into the input and then the input loses focus.

You can manually call the onchange event using after setting the value:

$("#mytext").val( 777 ).change(); // someObject.onchange(); in standard JS

Alternatively, you can trigger the event using:

$("#mytext").val( 777 ).trigger("change");
