Detecting when a textbox is populated

[jscranton]

Hi,

I have a date textbox on my form that is populated by a typical popup calendar -- click on a date in the calendar and the text box is populated.

Using JavaScript, I'd like to detect when that textbox is populated. I've tried onblur and onchange, neither work.

Any ideas?

Thanks & regards,
James

onChange should work, what are trying to do when this event happens?

The textbox that is linked to the calendar is hidden. When populated, I want to automatically populate a visible textbox with the date in the English date format, i.e., "dd/mm/yyyy". Using IE 5.

onChange only seems to work when the textbox has the focus and then loses it.
