The jQuery change() method is used to attach a function to run when a change event occurs i.e, when the value of an element is changed. This method is limited for form fields only, for input elements, textarea boxes and select elements.
- The change event is fired immediately in case of select boxes, checkboxes, and radio buttons, as soon as the user makes a selection.
- For elements of other types, the change event occurs as soon as the field loses focus.

$(selector).change()

$(selector).change(function)
Function:
