Hey everyone,

I was wondering if anybody knows how to enable a button as soon as you start typing in an input field. For the moment i use onChange but the user must click outside in order to enable the button which i dont like. i would prefer to enable the button as soon as the user types in the input. I cant find anything about it.

Thanks for any help,

Jerome
