jQuery Event : Detect changes to the html/text of a div
I have a div which has its content changing all the time , be it ajax requests
, jquery functions
, blur
etc etc.
Is there a way I can detect any changes on my div at any point in time ?
I dont want to use any intervals or default value checked.
Something like this would do
$('mydiv').contentchanged() {
alert('changed')
}
If you don't want use timer and check innerHTML you can try this event
$('mydiv').on('DOMSubtreeModified', function(){
console.log('changed');
});
More details and browser support datas are Here.
Using Javascript MutationObserver:
// Select the target node.
var target = document.querySelector('mydiv')
// Create an observer instance.
var observer = new MutationObserver(function(mutations) {
console.log(target.innerText);
});
// Pass in the target node, as well as the observer options.
observer.observe(target, {
attributes: true,
childList: true,
characterData: true
});
See the MDN documentation for details; this should work in pretty much all current browser, including IE11.
