I have a textbox which needs to be a number less than or equal to 255, on keydown I want to check if this value is above or equal to 255 else prevent the event.
In the Console when I console.log the event it will show event.srcElement.value as the value will appear i.e. from 12 => 123, when I console.log just event.srcElement.value it will show as the input was, not will be.
Console.log's are happening one after the other, nothing in between, no pauses.
How can I find what the new value of a textbox will be on keydown and why is the console.log returning different results?
Here's my code:
function inputNumeric(event,max) {
console.log (event);
console.log ('event.originalEvent.srcElement.value: '+event.originalEvent.srcElement.value);
console.log ('event.srcElement.value: '+event.srcElement.value);
}
$("#rs485addr").keydown(function(event) {
inputNumeric(event);
});
Console.log:
event.originalEvent.srcElement.value: 12
event.srcElement.value: 12
event.srcElement:
