When a user creates a new account on my website I want to check if the name already exists. I want this check to run when they leave the username input box and go to enter a password.
I tried :
<input type="text" onkeyup="check_user(this.value)"/>
You need to use the “onblur” event. It fires when a control loses its focus, which seems to be exactly what you need.
