I’ve got an html form text field that normally handles key up/down events. However, just noticed that if you use the mic assistant in ios5 mobile safari to fill the field for you, the key up/down isn’t getting triggered.

Anyone know what event should be bound to instead to handle? Currently using jQuery w/o jQuery Mobile (file size restrictions) – plain JS would be super too. Am hoping I don’t need to resort to polling.

Fiddle of demo code:

You can get to the mic functionality by clicking on the little mic icon on the text input tray.

Thanks in advance.

    Solution in jquery below. (I’m sure there’s a pure JS equivalent very similar to this.)

    $("#myinput").bind("input paste", handleChange);

    Demo here: http://jsfiddle.net/jfroom/JLQLV/31/

    .bind(“input propertychange”) also works, but can dilute other key up/down events. Thanks to SLaks for this find Jquery / JS bind "paste" event handler to input textbox
