OK, I've done this, but it still isn't achieving what I want.
Maybe I've got the wrong idea - I'm expecting this event to trigger when I
click anywhere on the page except for my widget. Am I going about this in
the wrong way? I thought that DynAPI.document represented the same object as
usual JavaScript document object?
Cheers, Ben
