onChange( )


Adds an event handler that runs when an element's value is changed.

An element receives a change event when a site visitor changes the value of an element.

A change event is not triggered when you change an element's value using the element's value property.

Because onChange() is fired before validations are performed, do not check any of the validation properties in the onChange() event handler. For example, do not code an if statement that checks the valid property in onChange() because the property at this point contains values prior to the onChange() event.
