## Examples

The following script queries the event target as the text in a textArea is changed.

<script type="text/javascript">
function handleInput(ev) {
    alert(ev.target.value);
}
window.onload = function() {
    document.getElementById('myTextArea').addEventListener('input',handleInput,false);
}
</script>
<textarea id="myTextArea">Edit this text.</textarea>

Notes Remarks

You can use the oninput to detect when the contents of a textArea, input type=text, or input type=password have changed. This event occurs immediately after modification, unlike the change event, which occurs when the element loses focus. To invoke this event, do one of the following:

Enter some text into a form field.
Cut, delete, or paste content.
Navigate to another document.
