Definition and Usage

The ng-change directive tells AngularJS what to do when the value of an HTML element changes.

The ng-change directive requires a ng-model directive to be present.

The ng-change directive from AngularJS will not override the element's original onchange event, both the ng-change expression and the original onchange event will be executed.

The ng-change event is triggered at every change in the value. It will not wait until all changes are made, or when the input field loses focus.

The ng-change event is only triggered if there is a actual change in the input value, and not if the change was made from a JavaScript.


Syntax

<element ng-change="expression"></element>

Supported by <input>, <select>, and  <textarea>.
