How to know when popup.html loses focus ?

Hi everyone ! This is my first post here

So I'm currently developing an extension for Chrome (oh really ?

) and I have a little problem:

I would like to be able to know when my popup.html loses focus.
onFocus() works perfectly and fire when I click on my extension, but I don't know what to use when I click elsewhere and that my popup is closed. I tried onBlur(), but it's not working (it acts like onFocus actually...).

Any suggestions ?

<body onunload="chrome.extension.getBackgroundPage().console.log('bye bye');" >
....that'll do it for ya

Thanks a lot ! It works

I tried onunload before and it wasn't working, but I didn't thought about calling the background page.
