Blur event stops click event from working?

Question

It appears that the Blur event stops the click event handler from working? I have a combo box where the options only appear when the text field has focus. Choosing an option

Answer 1

click event triggers after the blur so the link gets hidden. Instead of click use mousedown it will work.

$('.ShippingGroupLinkList').live("mousedown", function(e) {
    alert('You wont see me if your cursor was in the text box');
});

Other alternative is to have some delay before you hide the links on blur event. Its upto you which approach to go for.
