[js] IE input select() bug

Do a select() focus() on an input box with contents. Now click on another control (e.g. checkbox). The input box contents remain "selected" even though the focus is now on the other control.

To fix, I had to assign an onblur handler to the input box:

input.onblur = function() {
  var value = this.value;
  this.value = '';
  this.value = value;
}

Pretty stupid.
