What is difference between OnChange and AddOnChange in Dynamics CRM - dynamics-crm

In CRM 2011, i wrote a function in js and attached that function to OnChange event of a field. When the value changed in LookUpField1, it should update value of another LookUpField2 but it is only updating after saving and loading the form.
Where as if i use addonChange and firing the function, LookUpField2 value is automatically updating when LookUpField1 is changed.
Why is it working with addonChange and not OnChange event of attr?
Apart from programmatically firing a function using addonChange, are there any instances where we need to use addonchange?
I hope i make sense ;) & Thanks in advance!!!

OnChange is the event. addOnChange is the way to add a handler Here's what the documentation says:
OnChange Event
Use the addOnChange, removeOnChange, and fireOnChange
methods and to manage event handlers for the OnChange event.

Any way to limit how often onChange happens in a DateInput? (blueprintjs)

We're using the date input component as part of some parameterization on a page. So, as soon as the onChange event fires we want to go fetch some more data.
The problem is that the onChange fires too often as a user is typing. If I type just "Nov" that's setting a valid date of Nov-01-YYYY, and so the onChange event fires. I believe I would like to fire the onChange only when a full date has been entered, or the enter key is pressed, though I'm open to other ideas.
DateInput does not currently provide such a feature. Sounds like you're requesting an onConfirm handler. GitHub is the place to request features.

Is there an Event "After Search" for NavGrid jqGrid

I want to trigger a function after the user search something on my navGrid.
I've found the event loadComplete but that doesn't match with my expectations because I also reload my grid programmatically. Then maybe there is something link to the click... if someone has an idea.
Thanks.
There are exist onSearch callback (and jqGridFilterSearch jQuery event). It trigger reloadGrid which finish with loadComplete (and jqGridAfterLoadComplete jQuery event). You can set some custom option of jqGrid inside of onSearch callback (for example, $(this).jqGrid("getGridParam").searchingStarted = true;) and to test its value inside of loadComplete. At the end of loadComplete you should always reset the value of the custom option. In the way you can distinguish reloading of the grid started from Searching Dialog from other reloading.

jQuery: How to add and handle the beforeChange event to input element?

I have read all the official documentation of jQuery 1.7.2, but I cannot find any detail about the 'beforechange' event (or something like that) which help me control some rules before allowing the element to change its value. Is there any plugins provide this handler?
Thank you so much!
The jQuery api doesnot provide the 'beforechange' event but instead provide great flexibility to write our own custom events. We can define our own custom events and can be triggered when the events is fired.
For example for input elements we can have onkeydown or onkeypress events and when fired we can trigger our custom events to control some rules.
The following link provides information for creating custom events. Its very simple and flexible.

Jqgrid Edit Form Change Event of Select doesnt fire when scrolling thorugh records

I have been following this example, http://www.ok-soft-gmbh.com/jqGrid/DependendSelects2.htm, as it is just what I need. I have got it working but it doesnt work when scrolling through records. If you bring up the form and scroll from a UK record to a US record, the list doesnt change. The onChange event only fires when the user selects from the select drop down.
Is there a way around this?
Thanks for your help.

My old demo uses 'change' event handler defined in the dataEvents property of the editoptions. In the dataEvents array one can define other event handlers.
You need just bind keyup to the column exactly like it's described in the answer. In the body of the event handler you can do the same actions as in the body of the 'change' event handler (you can place the code in a function and call it from the both handlers). In the way you should be able to solve the problem.
UPDATED: I updated the old answer and another one which was origin for the demo which you used. The new demo support the navigation buttons (the buttons to edit the 'next' or the 'previous' row) in the editing form.

using jquery, if i need to capture dropdown change event, do i need livequery plugin?

I want to have some code run when i change the selection of a dropdown. i see the livequery plugin states that this is needed to support as some browsers don't do it out of the box
Do I really need livequery to capture onchange event of a dropdown that i create dynamically or does the regular live syntax work in all browsers?
live takes advantage of event bubling mechanism so we can attach event handlers to elements which are created dynamically also, it will work as expected since it attaches event to the document element and listens to them. But I believe change event is not bubbled upto the dom tree so it may not work.
from this page, it looks like you need livequery for it to work in IE
No. You should be able to use just the standard jquery api.
for the dynamic elemenets use .live('change', function to capture the event.
