NumericTextBox 'onClick'?

[Lee]

Is there a way I can bind to the click event of the control? Doing the following somewhat works, but requires a double click. It seems the first click is being silenced or aborted by the control internally.

   this.$el.find(".textbox-debit").click(function() {

                    console.log("hi!");
                });

                this.numDebit = this.$el.find(".textbox-debit").kendoNumericTextBox({
                    format: "c"
                }).data("kendoNumericTextBox");

 

Thank you!

Hello Lee,

The described behavior is expected. Internally the numeric text box uses two inputs, one for the formatted value and another for editing the value. Initially the input with formatted value is displayed, once the input is focused the formatted input is hidden and the editor input is displayed.

Basically the event is attached to the editor input, so the click is fired after the numeric is focused (in edit mode). For better understanding, please refer to the following screencast:

A possible workaround is to attach the same handler to both focus and click events.
