I would add that HTMLElement has a built-in  blur method as well   Here s a demo using both  focus and  blur which work in similar ways    x000D   x000D  const input   document querySelector   myInput    x000D   lt input id  myInput  value  Some Input  gt  x000D   x000D   lt button type  button  onclick  input focus    gt Focus lt  button gt  x000D   lt button type  button  onclick  input blur    gt Lose focus lt  button gt  x000D   x000D   x000D

use document activeElement blur     example at http   jsfiddle net vGGdV 5  that shows the currently focused element as well   Keep a note though that calling blur   on the body element in IE will make the IE lose focus
