Removing focus from a mvc ajax dropdown after using select by jquery

Question

I have an AjaxDropDown and I am calling the onchange event whenever the dropdown value changes. In the ajaxstop function I am binding data to the drop-down and selecting some value. So the focus is currently on dropdown as I am using select. Afterwards, whenever I click anywhere on the page the onchange event is called. Is there any way to set the focus of that dropdown to false after using select?

Here is my code:

$(document).ajaxstop(function(){
    var dropDown=$('#ddlDropDown').data('tDropDownList');
    dropDown.select(0);
});

i tried this also but it will remove focus from hidden field but not from ajaxdropdown. can u please suggest me how to remove from ajaxdropdown — Rudresha Parameshappa, Apr 17 '13 at 09:06
I didnt know that,anyway your ajax drop down is just a element right then this should work for sure.else you can try setting the focus on the body tag,that should fix it — dreamweiver, Apr 17 '13 at 09:11
`$('body').focus();` call this statement to set focus to body tag . Happy coding :) — dreamweiver, Apr 18 '13 at 13:47

Why not set the focus to something else, preferably something useful:

$('#other').click(function() {
  $('#target').focus();
});
