Shelane, First, you should be able to chain a few of your functions, ie: $(this).unbind().click(function()...
Secondly, I may be misunderstanding the purpose of the .blur function but I don't think it will work the exact way you are using it: "Note: This does not execute the blur method of the underlying elements! If you need to blur an element via code, you have to use the DOM method, eg. $("#myinput")[0].blur();" Sorry if I am not much help. -- Benjamin Sterling http://www.KenzoMedia.com http://www.KenzoHosting.com
