Detecting value change of input[type=text] in jQuery

just remenber that 'on' is recomended over the 'bind' function, so always try to use a event listener like this:

$("#myTextBox").on("change paste keyup", function() {
   alert($(this).val()); 
});

Description

You can do this using jQuery's .bind() method. Check out the jsFiddle.

Sample

Html

<input id="myTextBox" type="text"/>

jQuery

$("#myTextBox").bind("change paste keyup", function() {
   alert($(this).val()); 
});

This solution helped me to progress on my project.

$("#your_textbox").on("input propertychange",function(){

   // Do your thing here.
});

Note: propertychange for lower versions of IE.
