jQuery blur event not firing
问题 I'm new to jQuery, so I bet I'm doing something wrong, but I cannot figure out why this event is not firing. I have a textarea element that needs to have any breaking spaces removed prior to submission due to the application that is accepting the data. I am attempting to do this clean up in the textarea when it loses focus, hence the blur method. Unfortunately it does not appear to fire within my form. The weird part is the same code works in jsFiddle, but only upon the initial loss of focus.
