Obtaining Text Box Value after Chracter has been Typed in jQuery

What is the best way to get the value in a text box after character has been typed in jQuery? I always seem to be missing out o开发者_Python百科n the last character.

$('textbox').keyup(function() {
  var value = $(this).val();
});

YOu can use the bind function:

http://api.jquery.com/bind/

$('#textBoxId').bind('keyup keypress', function() { 
      //Do you stuff
  });

$("#textboxId").keyup(function(){
  $(this).val()
});

Try catching both change and keyup event

$("#test").bind("onkeyup change",function()
    {dosomething($(this).val())});
