Correct. The only way to reliably find out what element current has
focus is to bind a "focus" handler to all the elements that might take
focus on the page. When an element gets focus, you note it down. For
example:
var currentFocus = null;
$(':input').focus( function() {
currentFocus = this;
}).blur( function() {
currentFocus = null;
});
