Token value change does not update Search Manager

Hi,

Generally I want to have an text input field where you can enter an String which updates the table view.
Now when I am opening the Site he uses the default value of the text input field, but when I am changing the text in the txt input field the table view will not get updated. Do you have any hints what the problem is?

Regards Johann

        var tableView1 = new TableView({

It looks like you are missing the code to react to the text input value change, like so:
textinput1.on("change", function(newValue) {
FormUtils.handleValueChange(textinput1);
});

I would try adding that and see if it executes your search again.
