Can't you use change()?
>From the jquery docs.
"The change event fires when a control loses the input focus and its
value has been modified since gaining focus."
$("form Input, form select").change(function(){
alert($(this).val());
});
If you want to detect the value before lost focus, you have to use
keyup event.
//The script is not tested
$("form Input, form select").each(function(){
var origVal = $(this).val();
$(this).keyup(function(){
// you may want to compare the new value with the orig value from 0
to nth position
if ($(this).val() != origVal)
alert($(this).val());
});
});
