Unselect what was selected in an input with .select()

I know there are functions for specific tags like option, checkbox etc.. but those are not the ones i am looking for.

I need reverse of this:

http://www.w3schools.com/jquery/tryit.asp?filename=tryjquery_event_select_trigger

When i trigger the event the selected text, image, area should be unselected.

Is there a function like unselect ?

Problem can be seen here:

So far i have tried those but not worked:

jQuery('.es-nav-next, .es-nav-prev').click(function(){
    //    jQuery("btn btn-large btn-primary").focus();
    //  jQuery(this).stop(true, true).delay(600).hide().delay(600).fadeIn().blur();      
        jQuery("#falseselect").select();
        document.selection.emtpy();
    window.getSelection().empty();
    jQuery(this).blur();
    });

I don’t know of a jQuery library that handles this, which means you’ll have to worry about browser compatibilities yourself.

In most browsers, you should be able to run

window.getSelection().empty();

In problematic browsers, you might have to make that

document.selection.emtpy();
