Specifying the firing order of different event types is largely unncessary, but the DOM3 Events specification is ambiguous on the specific order for onblur and onchange events. Microsoft's position is that the onchange "event is executed before the code specified by onblur when the control is also losing the focus." http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/dhtml/reference/events/onchange.asp However, it appears that the behaviour varies between browsers: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=243816 The Terminology section previously found in the DOM Level 2 Events spec defined UI Logical events as: "Device independent user interface events such as focus change messages or element triggering notifications." I assume the omission from the DOM3 Events spec was not intended to lead to device dependent behaviour. [Errata, please?]
