AngularJS ng-repeat with ng-change

Question

I'm trying to have a way to catch the change of a variable inside of an ngRepeat so that I can modify other properties. So I have this HTML:

<tr ng-repeat="variable in variables">
  <td>
    <div ng-if="....">
      <textarea ng-model="variable.u_field_values" ng-change="onChange(variable)">

Whenever they modify the text in that textarea, I need to update another value on the current variable that's being used. The change method doesn't seem to ever get fired though.

*Whenever **they** modify the text in that textarea*. Define they. — dmahapatro, Jul 16 '14 at 16:58
Are you trying to watch `variable`? Or just any changes in the textarea? — ForgetfulFellow, Jul 16 '14 at 17:24
I've put your code in a plunker and it seems to work fine: http://plnkr.co/edit/RA9AZJL4Vgl26boWCkdV?p=preview — runTarm, Jul 16 '14 at 18:22
Use the controller as syntax, is it possible that you have `onChange` declared in 2 separate scopes? — cnorthfield, Mar 25 '17 at 19:42

Try putting the ng-change ahead of the ng-model:

<textarea ng-change="onChange(variable)" ng-model="variable.u_field_values">

I have found that order sometimes matters. No idea why, though..
