I've got an element

<input type=text>

On this, there is an Event

onChange=myfunction(param).

param is the content of the input itself. How can I handle, that, when I fire onChange (so complete the change of the field), in this param is the actual value of this field?

Is it possible to do something like that:

onChange=myfunction(document.getElementById('this_id'))

You can pass this to myFunction which will be the input

<input type=text onChange=myfunction(this) />

then myFunction could look like this:

function myFunction(obj)

{

    var value = obj.value; // the value of the textbox

}
