Using jQuery i would like to run a function when either .change()
or .keyup()
are raised.
Something like this.
if ( jQuery(
You could subscribe for the change and keyup events:
$(function() {
$(':input').change(myFunction).keyup(myFunction);
});
where myFunction
is the function you would like executed:
function myFunction() {
alert( 'something happened!' );
}
Do this.
$(function(){
var myFunction = function()
{
alert("myFunction called");
}
jQuery(':input').change(myFunction).keyup(myFunction);
});
That's not how events work. Instead, you give them a function to be called when they happen.
$("input").change(function() {
alert("Something happened!");
});
you can bind to multiple events by separating them with a space:
$(":input").on("keyup change", function(e) {
// do stuff!
})

hope that helps. cheers!
If you're ever dynamically generating page content or loading content through AJAX, the following example is really the way you should go:
body
of the document, so regardless of what elements are added, moved, removed and re-added, all descendants of body
matching the selector specified will retain proper binding.The Code:
// Define the element we wish to bind to.
var bind_to = ':input';
// Prevent double-binding.
$(document.body).off('change', bind_to);
// Bind the event to all body descendants matching the "bind_to" selector.
$(document.body).on('change keyup', bind_to, function(event) {
alert('something happened!');
});
Please notice! I'm making use of $.on()
and $.off()
rather than other methods for several reasons:
$.live()
and $.die()
are deprecated and have been omitted from more recent versions of jQuery.$.change()
and $.keyup()
separately, or pass the same function declaration to each function called; Duplicating logic... Which is absolutely unacceptable.$.bind()
does not dynamically bind to elements as they are created. Therefore if you bind to :input
and then add an input to the DOM, that bind method is not attached to the new input. You'd then need to explicitly un-bind and then re-bind to all elements in the DOM (otherwise you'll end up with binds being duplicated). This process would need to be repeated each time an input was added to the DOM.keyup event input jquery
For Demo
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#tutsmake").keydown(function(){
$("#tutsmake").css("background-color", "green");
});
$("#tutsmake").keyup(function(){
$("#tutsmake").css("background-color", "yellow");
});
});
