The behavior, though, depends upon whether that exitField is going to the next field of the group, or clean out of the group >You could also add a graphic to the group, behind all the controls of the >group, and add >a mouseUp handler to this graphic. I'm not following--wouldn't the mouseUp/Dn go outside the group when someone clicks the external field? could I use mouseWithin, perhaps? Does moving the cursor outside the current field count as "using the browser control"? > As mike wrote, you can disable all controls while the group is visible.

I would like the user, when done with the extra fields in the group, to be able to exit by any obvious means--the command to close, tabbing out (which I can detect), or just clicking where he wants to be next. Being able to tell that a click occurred outside the invisible background graphic sounds the best so far . . . -- The Hawkins Law Firm Richard E. Hawkins, Esq.
