Trigger Change event when the Input value changed programmatically?

I have an Input in my form.

<input type="text" id="changeProgramatic" onchange="return ChangeValue(this);"/>

If I change the value in this textBox (changeProgramatic) using another JavaScript function it won't trigger the change Event.(Note: I'm passing 'this' into the method)

Vanilla JS solution:

var el = document.getElementById('changeProgramatic');
el.value='New Value'
el.dispatchEvent(new Event('change'));

Note that dispatchEvent doesn't work in old IE (see: caniuse). So you should probably only use it on internal websites (not on websites having wide audience).

So as of 2019 you just might want to make sure your customers/audience don't use Windows XP (yes, some still do in 2019). You might want to use conditional comments to warn customers that you don't support old IE (pre IE 11 in this case), but note that conditional comments only work until IE9 (don't work in IE10). So you might want to use feature detection instead. E.g. you could do an early check for: typeof document.body.dispatchEvent === 'function'.

You are using jQuery, right? Separate JavaScript from HTML.

You can use trigger or triggerHandler.

var $myInput = $('#changeProgramatic').on('change', ChangeValue);

var anotherFunction = function() {
  $myInput.val('Another value');
  $myInput.trigger('change');
};

If someone is using react, following will be useful:

const valueSetter = Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(this.textInputRef, 'value').set;
const prototype = Object.getPrototypeOf(this.textInputRef);
const prototypeValueSetter = Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(prototype, 'value').set;
if (valueSetter && valueSetter !== prototypeValueSetter) {
    prototypeValueSetter.call(this.textInputRef, 'new value');
} else {
    valueSetter.call(this.textInputRef, 'new value');
}
this.textInputRef.dispatchEvent(new Event('input', { bubbles: true }));
