JavaScript 1.0
Synopsis
<textarea onchange="handler" ... >... </textarea>textarea.onchange
Description
The onchange property of a Textarea element refers
to an event handler function that is invoked when the user changes
the value in the text area and then "commits" those
changes by moving keyboard focus elsewhere.
Note that the onchange event handler is
not invoked when the value
property of a Text object is set by JavaScript. Also note that this
handler is intended to process a complete change to the input value,
and therefore it is not invoked on a keystroke-by-keystroke basis.
See the HTMLElement.onkeypress reference page for
information on receiving notification of every key press event.
See Input.onchange for complete details about the
onchange event handler.

This fourth edition of the definitive reference to
JavaScript, a scripting language that can be embedded
directly in web pages, covers the latest version of the
language, JavaScript 1.5, as supported by Netscape 6 and
Internet Explorer 6. The book also provides complete
coverage of the W3C DOM standard (Level 1 and Level 2),
while retaining material on the legacy Level 0 DOM for
backward compatibility.
