Jeff,
So it seems that your statement about preferring onblur over
onpropertychange has more to do with poor programming than it does about one
method being better than another? That being said, I think I'll stick with
onblur, since it (hopefully) has universal support whereas onpropertychange
probably does not.
Thanks.
