On change post value is not working on Rich text editor as expected in New window
Requirement: we need to implement some On-change Actions on a rich text editor field. The actions should be triggered even for a slight change within the field without clicking anywhere outside the field
Issue: When we click on rich text editor using any key, the on change actions are not getting triggered.
however, the post value is working if we do a back space or have multiple clicks. but it is not working when you just click and add some text without any tab out.
Any suggestions are appreciated.

If you want the richt text editor to send an event every time a user hits a button, you can use the keyboard event any key. This will trigger the event on every key hit.
But I don't know how much text there is going to be and what the actions are, but going back and forth to the server every time someone hit a key has an huge impact on performance.

@SatyaSaiDeepK i doubt if the post value if it works for RTE. check the product capability before even trying.

@SatyaSaiDeepK RTE OnChange fires only when someone clicks outside because the underlying TextArea value is filled on blur (meaning when RTE is out of focus). Post Value will work but only when you click outside which is not the scenario you are looking for.
You can try 'Any key' but it'll have performance impact because of to and fro server calls.
