Send ajax request when textfield's OnBlur event is fired

Question

Is is possible to use AJAX on an onblur event from a textfield. I'd like html (inside a div container) to change whenever I tab out of a textfield. I see a lot of questions/tutorials using AJAX with forms but not on the individual components such as textfield or checkbox.

You can do it using plain JQuery. Assuming your form element has the ID of my_element:

$("#my_element").blur(function(){
  $.ajax({url: '/my/data', type: 'GET'})
  .done(function(response){
    $("#my_div").html(response);
  })
})
