The compositionupdate event is fired when a character is added to a passage of text being composed (fires with special characters that require a sequence of keys and other inputs such as speech recognition or word suggestion on mobile).

[1] Not dispatched immediately after compositionstart event.
[2] compositionupdate events are fired before editor contents are actually changed; that is, the value of an editable element has not yet been changed when compositionupdate event handlers are called. Starting in Gecko 12.0 (Firefox 12.0 / Thunderbird 12.0 / SeaMonkey 2.9), input events are fired while editing is underway, after the contents of the element are changed. This lets you get the updated contents while editing is underway.
Gecko also doesn't support the locale attribute for trusted events yet. However, web developers can set this value via initCompositionEvent() when creating untrusted events.
