How to trigger event in JavaScript?

Question

I have attached an event to a text box using addEventListener. It works fine. My problem arose when I wanted to trigger the event programmatically from another

Answer 1

Use jquery event call. Write the below line where you want to trigger onChange of any element.

$("#element_id").change();

element_id is the ID of the element whose onChange you want to trigger.

Avoid the use of

 element.fireEvent("onchange");

Because it has very less support. Refer this document for its support.
