Trunk listening

I have an ItemView that needs to listen for property input and changes (for older IE versions). Input event works fine, but change property doesn't seem to bind

events:
 'input .textArea': 'someFunction'
 'propertychange .textArea': 'someFunction'

      

        
        
        
      

    

It binds when I explicitly set it with on

and off

ex.

@textArea.on, 'input propertychange', someFunction

      

        
        
        
      

    

Is this just an event that cannot be linked through the ItemView events

?

So far I know the docs for listenTo

can be used to list events on backbone.js. Is there a way to link these two events using this method. i.e

 @listenTo textArea, 'input properychange', someFunction

      

        
        
        
      

    

PS I tried onpropertychange

in events

and it doesn't work either. Also, it should be change change, not keypress/keyup

etc events
