Trigger Change event when the Input value changed programmatically?
You are using jQuery, right? Separate JavaScript from HTML.
You can use trigger or triggerHandler.
var $myInput = $('#changeProgramatic').on('change', ChangeValue);
var anotherFunction = function() {
$myInput.val('Another value');
$myInput.trigger('change');
};
Vanilla JS solution:
var el = document.getElementById('changeProgramatic');
el.value='New Value'
el.dispatchEvent(new Event('change'));
Note that dispatchEvent
doesn't work in old IE (see: caniuse). So you should probably only use it on internal websites (not on websites having wide audience).
So as of 2019 you just might want to make sure your customers/audience don't use Windows XP (yes, some still do in 2019). You might want to use conditional comments to warn customers that you don't support old IE (pre IE 11 in this case), but note that conditional comments only work until IE9 (don't work in IE10). So you might want to use feature detection instead. E.g. you could do an early check for:
typeof document.body.dispatchEvent === 'function'
.
