Backbone.js text change event

Question

How do I trigger a change event on textbox in a backbone view?

I tried:

events: {
    "onChanged input.autocomplete": "update"
}

update didn't get fired. I also tried change .

What is the name of the event for textchange?

Answer 1

This should work:

events: {
    "change input.autocomplete": "update"
}

1. Is the selector (input.autocomplete) correct?
2. Change fires on blur, not on keydown - does this agree with your requirement?
