Ex: <html> <body> <input onkeyup="this.value = this.value.toUpperCase()" onchange="console.log('onchange dispatched');"/> </body> </html> In this case when user updates the value, its get programatically modifed again due to keyup handler. I see different behaviour in different browser. Does change event be fired when programatically changed on specific to keyup handler.

Yes, per 4.10.5.5. Common event behaviors, I believe the spec is [fairly] clear that 'change' fires after a 'commit' action or on blur (after being focused). In one of the examples, input from the user typing does not fire it until focus is lost. If this resolution is not satisfactory, please copy the relevant bug details/proposal into a new issue at the W3C HTML5 Issue tracker: https://github.com/w3c/html/issues/new where it will be re-triaged. Thanks!
