But onBlur is indeed for the element so whatever onBlur fires is guaranteed to be for the element you just left AFAIK :-).
What do you get if you alert onBlur the element value? Does it fire before the focus? How are you changing focus? TAB or Mouse? I am pretty sure that an onFocus should not fire before an onBlur. I am not sure what you are doing now on onBlur or how you are changing values etc (event handlers, key input). You got any code you can post either here or online?

The element I am processing (onblur) just lost focus and the second element (onfocus) just gained focus (or maybe not-- that's what I need to test for). I want the first element's onblur to know which element it just lost focus to. I found that in IE 6, the second element's onfocus gets ran first, HOWEVER, when the first element's onblur runs, any variables I set or changes I make "don't exist". It's really weird. It's like the onblur is stuck back in time the way the DOM looked BEFORE the second elements onfocus ran. I will look into the code sample James gave. I tend to shy away from JS frameworks for some reason. I guess it just scares me that there seems to be so many different ones, and I don't really know which ones are better. I don't want to run with Beta, and then find out VHS is the one I should have used :) Also, the last time I tried to use Prototype it conflicted with some other home grown event listeners in another portion of my site (Code I didn't write) and it looks like a larger undertaking to find everywhere the home-grown methods had been used and eradicate them. Until then I can't use Prototype. *sigh* ~Brad -----Original Message----- From: Robertson-Ravo, Neil (RX) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 27, 2006 2:38 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: HTML focus In this case though, won't the object you are currently processing have focus?
