OK, so it's not standardized, it's just common behaviour of several browsers. I give up and start listening to input events. Sigh! - Take Surveys. Earn Cash. Influence the Future of IT Join SourceForge.net's Techsay panel and

First point: the html onchange event only fires if the textfield loses the focus and its value has been modified. Please have a look at the standards: http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/scripts.html#adef-onchange This is exactly what the "changeValue" event listener does for you. So I don't

Well, this is not what I wanted. As you said, changeValue is only fired when the textfield looses focus. What I want is an event that is fired when I hit the return key. And, yes, I have had a look at the demos before, and yes, I know how to do this with the "input" event. I just wonder why qooxd

Hi, Clearly, you must attach a key event to the textfield, and when the enter key is pressed, you must dispatch an execute event to the button. You have many examples of keyboard processing in the qooxdoo source code. The doc explains also this. Matthias Reuter wrote: > > In my application,

In my application, I have a TextField and a Button. When either the TextField is focused and enter/return is pressed or the Button is clicked, I want some action to happen, so I added an eventlistener. What exactly is the event for the TextField I have to listen to? It's not "input", I don't want t
