模糊事件在第一次尝试时不会触发

Question

I'm trying to update the DOM based on the value entered in a text box.

HTML:

<input id="event-name" type="text"/>

JQUERY:

$('#event-name').on('blur',function(){
  $.post("scripts/add-team-support.php",{eventName : eventName},function(minAndMaxString){
  //my code here
  });
});

this works on the first blur in Chrome. When I tried it in opera, mozilla and edge it doesn't worked on the first attempt.

It worked when I added this before the jquery.

$("#event-name").focus();
$("#event-name").blur();
$("#event-name").focus();

I did this to make the first $.post call to occur when the page opens.

Why is this problem happening? How to solve this in a proper way? Please help!

It often happens with elements across browsers that consequent events do not work when binding an event to them through ID or class. The following solution should help you:

$(document).on('blur','#event-name', function(){
  $.post("scripts/add-team-support.php",{eventName : eventName},function(minAndMaxString){
  //my code here
  });
});

Alternatively, you could use keyup event. You can do so following:

$(document).on('keyup','#event-name', function(){
  var eventName = $(this).val();
  $.post("scripts/add-team-support.php",{eventName : eventName},function(minAndMaxString){
  //my code here
  });
});

Also, using - in IDs is not a good approach. Rather, either stick to camelCase or underscore_format of naming convention.
