TEXT OnChange

I'd like to fire a JS function from the Onchange event of a Text edit.
Unfortunately it doesn't fire when I hit any key, but only when leaving the
control. I've tried with OnKeyup, and it works, but it isn't compatible with
NS6.

Please any advice ?

Best regards.

onkeypress should work with Netscape 6. I am almost certain I used it

You seem to be right -
http://www.blooberry.com/indexdot/ht...es/events1.htm
lists NN6 as supporting the HTML onkey*.

That's exactly what it's supposed to do. If the value of a control changes
between entering and exiting the control, a change event is fired.

Validate using the change event. If you're trying to stop certain
characters being entered, it won't be reliable. Someone could paste a
value in and you won't catch the prohibited characters.

I have come across a problem where if a user enters the same text into a text input after the value has been programmatically changed, the onChange event does not fire for the second change. The following code demonstrates this: <html> <body> <input type=text value='yyy' onchange="this.value='xxx'"></input> <input type=text value='2'></input>

I am looking into the different techniques of handling arrays of edit boxes in Java Script. The first program below works fine. However, are there better ways of doing this, where the person writing the JavaScript doesn't have to pass the index in the "onChange" event name. I thought that one might be able to use "this.value" or compare this as

Hi, I'm using StatusBar text to inform the user what's going on in the application. I pass a reference to from the main form's class to other (instances of) classes that are doing the actual work, and they update the Text property in various ways. It would be slick (imo) if, after the user is informed about the antics of some class-instance, if the StatusBar text would revert back to some default text-variable in the main form class...

Hi All; I, like others, have been frustrated with designing forms that look and flow the same in both IE and Firefox. They simply did not scale the same. I have discovered, to my chagrin, that IE7 does not seem to offer any way to control the font size of a text input element.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
