Get the clicked object that triggered jquery blur() event [duplicate]

Answer 1

Using this within blur handler function will give you the blured element.

$(target).blur(function(e){
   var bluredElement = this;  // dom element
   // To make a jQuery object 
   var bluredElement = $(this);
});

Within blur event you can't catch the clicked element. To get the clicked element you need click event. For example:

$(element).click(function() {
  var clickedElement = this;
});

And to get the focused element you can use :focus selector like: $(':focus') will returns you focused element in document.
