jQuery - way to find if form field is focused

Is there a way in jQuery to find out, if form filed is focused?

Like

if $('#id_here input[type=text]:focus'){ do this } else { } 

?

Cheers, mart

Yes. Use focus and blur event handlers:

$("#id_here input:text").focus(function(e) {
    // I am in focus, do something
    alert("I am a " + e.target.tagName);
}).blur(function(e) {
    // I have lost focus, do something else
});
