IE textfield focus causes window.onblur????

Does anyone know why placing the cursor/focus in a textfield in IE would cause the window.onblur event handler to be called? This seems very odd since the window still has focus....
Is there a way to prevent window.onblur form being called when a textfield in the same window gets focus or to test if the currently focused element is a textfield in window.onblur?

I am testing on IE 6 on WinXP.


Thanks,
Erik

Usually a small timeout to delay the focus will solve this annoying bug.
