The blur event is fired when an element has lost focus. The main difference between this event and focusout is that only the latter bubbles.

Note: The value of Document.activeElement varies across browsers while this event is being handled (bug 452307): IE10 sets it to the element that the focus will move to, while Firefox and Chrome often set it to the body of the document.

Event delegation

There are two ways of implementing event delegation for this event : by using the focusout event in browsers that support it (all browsers but Firefox), or by setting the "useCapture" parameter of addEventListener to true:

HTML Content

<form id="form">
  <input type="text" placeholder="disabled">
  <input type="password" placeholder="disabled">
</form>

JavaScript Content

var form = document.getElementById("form");
form.addEventListener("focus", function( event ) {
  event.target.style.background = "pink";    
}, true);
form.addEventListener("blur", function( event ) {
  event.target.style.background = "";    
}, true);

Browser compatibility

[1] Prior to Gecko 24 (Firefox 24 / Thunderbird 24 / SeaMonkey 2.21) the interface for this event was Event, not FocusEvent. See (bug 855741).
