Does anyone have a technique that will allow me to determine which element has focus after a blur event? I have an input field which I'd like to reset on blur unless the blur was caused by the user clicking the "save" button. I'd love to just set a flag in the save button's onclick function, but that would fire too late (unless click events always fire before blur events, which I doubt.)

The blur event fires when an element has lost focus. The event does not bubble, but the related focusout event that follows does bubble. The opposite of blur is the focus event, which fires when the element has received focus. The blur event is not cancelable.
The focusout event fires when an element has lost focus, after the blur event. The two events differ in that focusout bubbles, while blur does not. The opposite of focusout is the focusin event, which fires when the element has received focus.
onChange is when something within a field changes eg, you write something in a text input. onBlur is when you take focus away from a field eg, you were writing in a text input and you have clicked off it.
Answered here; When onblur occurs, how can I find out which element focus went to?
