Re: Anomaly: onblur handling AND advice on validation

However, in FF if the user mouses out of the text field then clicks
submit form submission and onblur processing will happen
simultaneously ( or submission happens first ).
We also noticed that if the user moves focus off of the prompt box
( or an alert ) and then tries to make it go away, it won't. FF
seems to be caught in a loop.

That is why you should use the onchange event and not the onblur event.
