Description

I use the input type to make a live search.
But I need to have a function that auto input the value into the live search input element.
I try to write the code in console: `$("#querySearch").val("test")`;
it didnt cahnge the value on the input element, but check by `$("#querySearch").val()`, it return `"test"`

I also set the code, `$("#querySearch").val("test")`on document reday and onload function, it output same result.

But I set this code inside an onclick function, the input element can display "test" immediately.

Research direction

Look at the jplist source code for the search input handling, likely in a file like jplist.js or a module for live search. Check how the input event is triggered and why setting .val() programmatically doesn't update the UI. Test by triggering a change or input event after setting the value, and verify the search results update.
