Onblur

By Stephen Chapman, About.com

Definition: The onblur event is used to define actions to be taken when the object to which the event is attached loses the focus ie. ceases to be current. This is not a reserved word so you can declare your own variable or function called onblur but if you do then you will not be able to use this event.
Examples:
<input type="text" onblur="validateValue(this)"
