The onblur property returns the onBlur event handler code, if any, that exists on the current element.

Syntax

element.onblur = function;
  • function is the name of a user-defined function, without the () suffix or any parameters, or an anonymous function declaration, such as
element.onblur = function() { console.log("onblur event detected!"); };

Example

<html>

<head>
<title>onblur event example</title>

<script type="text/javascript">

var elem = null;

function initElement()
{
  elem = document.getElementById("foo");
  // NOTE: doEvent(); or doEvent(param); will NOT work here.
  // Must be a reference to a function name, not a function call.
  elem.onblur = doEvent;
};

function doEvent()
{
  elem.value = 'Bye-Bye';
  console.log("onblur Event detected!")
}
</script>

<style type="text/css">
<!--
#foo {
border: solid blue 2px;
}
-->
</style>
</head>

<body onload="initElement();">
<form>
<input type="text" id="foo" value="Hello!" />
</form>

<p>Click on the above element to give it focus, then click outside the
element.<br /> Reload the page from the NavBar.</p>

</body>
</html>

Notes

The blur event is raised when an element loses focus.

In contrast to MSIE--in which almost all kinds of elements receive the blur event--almost all kinds of elements on Gecko browsers do NOT work with this event.
