Input text won't change if set programmatically

Question

I have this input text:

<input name="mytbox" id="mytbox"
onchange="Modify(this.value);" type="text" value="Surname Name">

When I set the field from an external procedure it doesn't trigger the change event.

obj = document.getElementById(id);
obj.value = valore;

The value is correctly changed, but not the trigger. How can I bind an event to trigger in this case?

Thanks

Call the method Modify after changing the value. Try like this

obj = document.getElementById(id);
obj.value = valore;
Modify(obj.value);
