jQuery debounce, way to pass the element along to the function?

HTML

<input class="list_item_title mini" name="list_item[title]" size="30" type="text" value="What happens when a user creates a new item?">

JS:

function text_2(e) {
  开发者_StackOverflow  console.log(e.val());
};

$(function() {
    $('input.list_item_title').keyup( $.debounce( 250, text_2 ) );
});

e.val() currently doesn't work. how can I pass the input along so I can get the value?

Thanks

e is a reference to the event object ^[docs], not the input element.

You can get a reference to the input element using event.currentTarget ^[docs].

After the having a look at the source code, you should also be able to access the element with this (like in any other event handler), so the following should work:

function text_2(e) {
    console.log($(this).val());
};

console.log($(e.target).val());
