Background Change of an input box thats focused

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Jul 20.2010

I have a website I am working on that the customer wants nice text displayed in both the user/pass boxes prior to entering data. So I figured it would be nice to just use background images (as passwords cant have text) and it looked very nice. The issue is when the user selects a username from a dropdown list of previously entered usernames and selects via the mouse it doesn’t fire any events that I can see. The largest issue is they want the username focused, otherwise this would be easy with just onFocus/blur.

Any ideas? I feel after the hours I have put into it that I am missing something very simple. I just want the bg to change when data is in the field but not delayed. FF is giving me the most fits.

Thanks for any help.
