how do I get the text that is typed in a search component?

tried the below 3. None of them work. I get an error

code
console.log(this.text());
console.log(this.val());
console.log(this.attr('value'));
/code

None of the above work

M&M,

This should work
preAppery("mobilesearchbar_7").val()/pre

thanks. Btw I was referring to the element within one of the events. So I thought that this refers to the search component. Anyway thanks

Hello M&M,

Sorry for delay.
Could you please clarify, is previous solution works for you? Because for different events it is better to use different ref "this" or "events" variables.

hi,

Yes it works for me. Even $(this).val() works too, in the keyup event.

Thanks,
M&M
