Hi, I am not 100% sure, I got you, but you want to trigger an event (onchange), when there was no onchange, but onclick (for instance) ?
See: http://www.howtocreate.co.uk/tutorials/javascript/domevents "Manually firing events" That allows you to do things like: <html> <body onload="init();"> <script> function changeValue() { var fireOnThis = document.getElementById('bar'); fireOnThis.value = fireOnThis.value + "A"; if( document.createEvent ) { var evObj = document.createEvent('HTMLEvents'); evObj.initEvent( 'change', true, false ); fireOnThis.dispatchEvent(evObj); } else if( document.createEventObject ) { fireOnThis.fireEvent('onchange'); } } function mySecondListener() { alert("this rocks"); } function init() { var referenceToElement=document.getElementById('bar'); if(referenceToElement.attachEvent) { referenceToElement.attachEvent('onchange',mySecondListener); } else if(referenceToElement.addEventListener ) { referenceToElement.addEventListener('change',mySecondListener,false); } } </script> <input id="bar" type="text" onchange="alert('onchange');"/> <button id="foo2" onclick="changeValue();">bar2</button> </body> </html> On Dec 3, 2007 9:59 AM, Michael Borchert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi all, > > I try to have a table populated on the immediately (with a small > timeout ) when an input field changes. > > I've done it this simple way below, it works but is not really what I > want.
