Javascript DOM onfocusout Event via addEventListener() method

Introduction

In JavaScript, using the addEventListener() method:

object.addEventListener("focusout",
       myScript);

This example uses the addEventListener() method to attach a "focusout" event to an input element.

Write something in the input field, and then click outside the field to lose focus.

Firefox does not support the onfocusout event.
