What's wrong with your code is that by calling the focus() method, you're setting the focus... I presume that line would *always* return true...
I'm not sure if this is the best solution, but you could always set a global variable onBlur... example: <input type="text" name="firstName" onBlur="changeState(this, false)" onFocus="changeState(this, true)"/> Perhaps the method would look like: Code:
var nameFocus=false;
function changeState(obj, b) {
if(obj.name=="firstName") {
nameFocus=b;
}
}
This code is entirely untested and presumed not to work... perhaps it will give you a hint as to the direction to guide you to find an answer.
