Hi team,  
I have custom code (see below) that inserts text values into input fields which are used for filtering with CMS Filter with From/To ranges.  
Manually entering the text values into the input fields filters fine, however adding the same text values via my code does not filter. Note that a button is used to trigger the filter after the text values are inputted. Any help would be appreciated!

```auto
<script>
$('#priceFrom').on('change',function(){
    $('#priceFromInput').val($(this).find(":selected").val());
});
$('#priceTo').on('change',function(){
    $('#priceToInput').val($(this).find(":selected").val());
});
</script>

```

Hey @shane.topping! Normally dispatching a new event once the new values are added to the fields solves this issue. Can you try something like this on both inputs?

```js
input1.dispatchEvent(new Event('input', { bubbles: true }));
input2.dispatchEvent(new Event('input', { bubbles: true }));

```

If the issue persists feel free to share a link and I’ll jump in and help 💪
