remove focus on select element on change and also if not changed with jquery
===

I have the following code which removes the focus of a select menu when the selected item is changed:

    $("select").change( function() {
        $(this).blur();
    });

However, if I do not select a different option to the one that was already selected, the blur() function does not run... because nothing has changed.

Is there a "change or not changed" function??
