Description
See http://api.jquery.com/val/#comment-117202237 This is rather surprising.
It's possible to work around in your own code by manually sending the event, but this may not be possible if the relevant val(value) call is in third-party code. (For example: I want to trigger a function whenever a Calendrical widget updates a date input field, and I can't.)
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
The browser's native behavior is to *not* fire events when the value property is changed. Thus we'd be introducing a difference from native behavior. Also, it would mean that changing the value of an input within the
change
event handler (for example, reformatting it) would cause infinite recursion.
