Last Updated : 07 Jul, 2023

The jQuery focusout() is an inbuilt method that is used to remove focus from the selected element.

Syntax:

$(selector).focusout(function);

Parameter: It accepts a parameter “function” which is to be executed after the execution of the fadeout method.

Example 1: jQuery code to show the working of focusout() method.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
 
<head>
    <script src=

    </script>
    <!-- jQuery code to show the working of this method -->
    <script>
        $(document).ready(function () {
            $("div").focusin(function () {
                $(this).css("background-color", "green");
            });
            $("div").focusout(function () {
                $(this).css("background-color", "#FFFFFF");
            });
        });
    </script>
    <style>
        div {
            border: 2px solid black;
            width: 50%;
            padding: 20px;
        }
 
        input {

            margin: 10px;
        }
    </style>
