Is There Equivalent Of Onbeforedeactivate Event For Firefox Etc.?

this works in IE $('#blah').bind('beforedeactivate', fnBlah); but I can not find equivalent for Firefox and other browsers

Solution 1:

beforedeactivate is an IE-specific event handler. The closest you can get are the focusout and blur events.

Usage in JQuery:

functioneventHandler(){
    //...
};
$("element").focusout(eventHandler);
$("element").blur(eventHandler);

Links to JQuery implementations:

1. Focusout
2. Blur

Solution 2:

You can use

object.addEventListener ("blur", handler, useCapture);

or

object.attachEvent ("onblur", handler);
