Closing a pop-up window when it loses focus

[DrDrew]

My problem is I want a popup window to close when it loses 'focus'. I tried using the Self.Close() method which works great for closing the window, but I have Form Fields on the page and when I click inside a form field it closes the window because it treats it as losing focus (which I do not want to happen, I only want the pop-up window to close when the user clicks off of it). Anyone have any solutions or suggestions?

it's not foolproof, as different browsers have different ideas of when the window loses focus, but try this:

<script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;>
window.onload = function attachEvents() {
	var els = document.getElementsByTagName(&quot;*&quot;);
	for (var x = 0; x < els.length; x++) {
		els[x].onfocus = function() {clearTimeout(window.timer)};
	}
	document.onblur = closeWindow;
	document.body.onblur = closeWindow;
}

window.onblur = function closeWindow() {
	window.timer = setTimeout(&quot;window.close();&quot;,1000);
}
</script>
