Description

[nitkkr.vivek]

Attachment: default.html

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.8; rv:21.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/21.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20130511120803

Steps to reproduce:

JsFiddle link : http://jsfiddle.net/6YGdd/2/show/
1. Click on element which says "Hello computer"
2. Click on location bar.
document.activeElement is still the Element which says "Hello computer" although a blur event was fired on it.
3. Click on element which says "Hello World"


Actual results:

Blur event was not fired on "Hello computer" although it was the active element before the click on "Hello world".



Expected results:

Either the active element in step 2 should change or "Hello computer" should fire a blur event when "Hello world is clicked".

Could be related to bug 582459 ? Perhaps it is something related to activeElement?
