Hi,

how can i detect the OutMouseClicks out side of the HTML page ?

In general its window.onBlur in JavaScript but IE handles things a bit different as usual ;-) They tried to integrate a focus/blur handler for the window object into GWT some time ago but it does not work very well, so they removed it.

To detect when the user has left the window, you can also look as the new page visibility API in HTML5.

See the explication/example here: http://davidwalsh.name/page-visibility
