change(function() {..}) handler fires unnecessarily on Webkit

Reported by: mspreij Owned by:
Priority: undecided Milestone: 1.4.2
Component: event Version: 1.4.2
Keywords: change Cc:
Blocking: Blocked by:

Description

The .change() handler triggers only on actual changes in Firefox, but in Safari/Chrome it triggers also if you enter something in the field, then delete it, and then tab out of it - leaving the field the same as it was before, unchanged.

Ehrmmm.. so, it turns out that in Chrome at least, for <input type="text" name="whatever" value="yadda" onchange="foobar()"> the foobar() function gets called also, without an *actual* change, just some editing and undoing and tabbing out. Webkit bug?

Well if Chrome/Webkit is firing the change event then jQuery will deliver it. A workaround at our level would require saving the current value on focus and then comparing to that value on blur. I'd file a bug with them.

  • Priority set to undecided
  • Status changed from new to closed
  • Resolution set to wontfix

This seems like it has to be fixed by Chrome.

Please follow the  bug reporting guidlines and use  jsFiddle when providing test cases and demonstrations instead of pasting the code in the ticket.
