How to unfocus the cuser from the input box in a confirmation box using Jquery?
<p>I am having a confirmation box with a input field requesting a date. When the confirmation box appears, the input box is in focus. How do I unfocus it? I need to drop down a calendar when I click on the input field. Here is my relevant code: </p>

<pre><code>$(".confirmLink").click(function(e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    var targetUrl = $(this).attr("href");
   document.getElementById('dialog').focus();
    $("#dialog").dialog({
        buttons : {
            "OK" : function() {

                window.location.href =  targetUrl+"/"+"deletedDate"+"/"+document.getElementById('deletedDate').value;
            },
            "Cancel" : function() {
                $(this).dialog("close");
            }
        }
    });

    $("#dialog").dialog("open");
});

function datepicker(){
    $( "#deletedDate" ).datepicker(
    {
        dateFormat: 'yy-mm-dd',
        changeMonth: true,
        changeYear: true,
        showAnim: "slideDown"
    });
}
</code></pre>
