Getting events on delete and paste in textbox jquery

Question

I am using jquery on asp.net mvc. I have textbox on page and I hooked up handler for keyup event of textbox. When user deletes the text or pastes text into it, i do not get the handler called.

Please help me how to handle this.

EDIT: Also I want to get the value when user pastes the value using mouse.

Answer 1

Try moving your keyup to a change and see if that helps.

<input type="text" id="mytextbox" />

<script type="text/javascript">
  $(document).ready(function () {
     $("#mytextbox")keyup(function(evt) {
       evt = evt || event;
       switch (evt.keyCode) {
          case 8: //Backspace was pressed
            alert("Backspace");
            break;
          case 46: //Delete was pressed
            alert("Delete");
            break;
          case 67:
            if (evt.ctrlKey) {
               alert("Ctrl-C");
            }
            break;
          case 86:
            if (evt.ctrlKey) {
              alert("Ctrl-V");

            }
            break;
          default:
            alert(evt.keyCode);
            break;
       }
     });
  });

</script>
