    Is there a way detecting a window is active or not.

    Let me explain a little bit more.
    For example DP window is currently active on my browser, and my webpage is in another tab (or other browser window) and is inactive.
    I want to detect with a javascript whether my site is currently used by the user or it is on the background

    In the example above:
    The page turns white if focused and gray if blured...

    <html>
  <head>
    <script type="text/javascript">
      window.onblur = function ()
      {
        document.body.style.backgroundColor = "#CCCCCC";
      }
      window.onfocus = function ()
      {
        document.body.style.backgroundColor = "#FFFFFF";
      }
    </script>
  </head>

  <body style="background-color=#FFFFFF">
  </body>
</html>
