onFocus event for <select>

[brucemand]

if a user uses the keyboard to change the value of a <select>, ie. up/down through the <option>s, does it trigger another onFocus event ?if not, how would you catch it then ?

The onfocus event fires just when the select is focused, even if the keyboard was used to focus it. Changing the value only happend after the element has been focused.If you want to detect when the content of the select has been changed, use the onchange event instead.

ahh, *thanks* !!a much better event to use since it's being preloaded with a value.
