An event handler for the input event on the window. The input event is raised when an <input> element value changes.
This event bubbles. If supported on the window, it is supported on <input> elements as well.
Example
<script>
window.addEventListener('input', function (e) {
console.log("keyup event detected! coming from this element:", e.target);
}, false);
</script>
<input placeholder="type here and see console.">
