I am new to jQuery and am trying to fire a function on a keyPress if there are NO inputs selected. I am having trouble with testing for focus. Below is what I currently have but it isn’t working correctly. Any advice?

var inputHasFocus = false;
$('#myForm :input').each(is(":focus")){
    inputHasFocus = true;
};

if (inputHasFocus == false){

    $("*").keypress(function (e) {
        // the function
    }); 
}

    var focusedInputs = $("#myForm input:focus");
    if (focusedInputs != null && focusedInputs.length > 0) { inputHasFocus = true; }
    

    Something like that.
