jQuery input event suppressed

[popko]

Enabling formatter for example in an input element prevents to fire jQuery input event on that particular element. I consider this a bug.

I'm experiencing the same thing.

I consider it a bug as well. I will investigate when time permits.

I solved this by adding:

      if ('createEvent' in document) {
        var evt = document.createEvent('HTMLEvents');
        evt.initEvent('input', true, true);
        this.el.dispatchEvent(evt);
      } else {
        this.el.fireEvent('oninput');
      }

to line 694 of merged source or https://github.com/firstopinion/formatter.js/blob/master/src/formatter.js#L317. Definitely just a temporary fix. It will work in IE8+.

@gmanley Thanks. This is solving the issue on using formatter.js in AngularJS.
