Button to loose focus after close of popup window

[ismailc]

Good day, I need help.

I have an html button that calls & open another browser window on the onMouseUp event, but once I close the popup new browser window my button has focus & is like selected.

I want it not to be selected or clicked or has focus, how do i loose the focus after close of popup window?

onMouseUp="window.open("
 

Please Assist!

maybe something like

window.opener.focus();
window.close();

could work.

No luck, I tried on the same event:

onMouseUp="window.open(); window.opener.focus();window.close();" 
 

the same result - please assist!

futile. of course you have to call this snippet in the opened window (where should window.opener come from in a normal window?)

I’m not that good with focus(), but I could prove the concept with alert()…

not sure what to do !

Have you tried blur(), or giving focus to another element?

Thanks onBlur(); works great :)
