Just imagine a formular where there is a checkbox and a textfield. If someone starts typing into the textfield “bla bla bla whatever”, the checkbox should tick itself. Is there a event that corresponds to the typing or do I have to use .focus ?
events which are fired on typing are:
onkeydown(jQuery:keydown)onkeyup(jQuery:keyup)onkeypress(jQuery:keypress)You may create an event handler to any of those to modify or influence users input.
Also be aware of
.preventDefault()and.stopPropagation()functions, which prevent the default behavior for an element or suppress the event bubbling up the DOM.References: keyup, keydown, keypress, preventDefault(), stopPropagation()
