Question

Detecting 'onkeyup' events

I want my Java plugin to recheck the text after some delay (when there is no typing during 0.6 seconds).


I use java.utils.Timer for Arbortext Editor 5.2. I want to start it in the onkeyup event handler. What can serve as onkeyup event?

    I'm pretty sure the Editor doesn't supply you with an onkeyup event. However, you could experiment with some of the basic DOM events, like DOMSubtreeModified or DOMCharacterDataModified. Do a search in Help Center for 'Event Types'; the first result lists all the available events.
