# Events
## Event Propagation
Note All events are propagated to and from input element to the toggle.
You should listen to events from the `<input type="checkbox">` directly rather than look for custom events.
```html
<input id="toggle-event" type="checkbox" data-toggle="toggle">
<div id="console-event"></div>
<script>
$(function() {
$('#toggle-event').change(function() {
$('#console-event').html('Toggle: ' + $(this).prop('checked'))
})
})
</script>
```
## API vs Input
This also means that using the API or Input to trigger events will work both ways.
```html
<input id="toggle-trigger" type="checkbox" data-toggle="toggle">
<button class="btn btn-success" onclick="toggleApiOn()" >On by API</button>
<button class="btn btn-danger" onclick="toggleApiOff()">Off by API</button>
<button class="btn btn-success" onclick="toggleInpOn()" >On by Input</button>
<button class="btn btn-danger" onclick="toggleInpOff()">Off by Input</button>
<script>
function toggleApiOn() {
$('#toggle-trigger').bootstrapToggle('on')
}
function toggleApiOff() {
$('#toggle-trigger').bootstrapToggle('off')
}
function toggleInpOn() {
$('#toggle-trigger').prop('checked', true).change()
}
function toggleInpOff() {
$('#toggle-trigger').prop('checked', false).change()
}
</script>
```
