I’m trying to trigger a javascript event (fading in an image) after
a form (text, text-area) field has been exited and presumably filled-
in either by tabbing out or clicking on the next field, not when the
field is initially selected? I can set the onfocus event to trigger,
that’s easy, but I’ve been unable to get the above method to work.

Have you tried observing the form element’s blur event? If you want to
be specific to “the field lost focus and it changed somehow in between
gaining and losing focus” then you want to observer the change event.
<input type="text" id="foo" value="" name="foo />
<script src="prototype.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var foo = $('foo');
foo.observe('blur',function(evt){alert('I had your attention')});
foo.observe('change',function(evt){alert('I changed')});

My mistake. Yes, it should be onblur. I was doing something else with
onfocus and got them switched around.
