How to find out if text is pasted into an input field

[mettehummel]

I have an input field and I want to be able to do something in my backingBean whenever a user change the text in this field. So far I have added an onkeyup so I can do my stuff when a key is pressed, but what if the user uses the mouse to select, copy and paste a text into the input field?

Is there a way to find out if a user choose to paste text into an input text ?

Using onchange will do the trick, but only after the user leaves the field and that is to late for me.

Figured out a way to solve the problem. Added the following code.

function settOnpaste(element) {

       if (element.nodeType == 1){   

                element['onpaste'] = handlePasteEvents;

        }

}

function handlePasteEvents(e, elName) {

        radEndret(e);

}

<h:inputText id="inputBeskrivelse" value="#{linje.beskrivelse}"

        onfocus="settOnpaste(this)">

</h:inputText>
