On chrome, the "search" event is fired on search inputs when user clicks the clear button.
Is there a way to capture the same event in javascript on Internet Explorer 10?
The only solution I finally found:
// There are 2 events fired on input element when clicking on the clear button:
// mousedown and mouseup.
$("input").bind("mouseup", function(e){
var $input = $(this),
oldValue = $input.val();
if (oldValue == "") return;
// When this event is fired after clicking on the clear button
// the value is not cleared yet. We have to wait for it.
setTimeout(function(){
var newValue = $input.val();
if (newValue == ""){
// Gotcha
$input.trigger("cleared");
}
}, 1);
});
