hmm I need suggestion.

Actually am working on autocomplete address (zip code to autofill countries,state,city) feature.

But am confused with events. For example I have input field user is typing zip code so on which event I call my api example onsubmit or onChanged.

I seriously don't want to use onSubmit. But if I use onChange event than it will start searching for every character :(

any advice

    oninput triggers for every character

    onchange won't be suitable for this case

    onblur if you want to trigger after user moves to another input

    I think you confused onchange with oninput, onchange does not trigger for every character, it might be suitable

    @24th-Dragon hmm thanks I was going to test this as this is something new for me but then @theabbie suggested onBlur and I guess onBlur will work in my case :) Thanks to both of you
