[jquery] jQuery - on change input text

This works for me on all browsers and Jquery <= v1.10

$('#kat').on('keyup', function () {
    alert("Hello");
});

or as it seems you want

$('#kat').on('click', function () {
    alert("Hello");
});

Textbox input field change event fires as you would expect it to, the jQuery .Change event only works correctly on html5 supported browsers
