Getting Event Id in javascript

Question

I have this code

\$Title.on('blur',function(){

            //on blur fire the event
            clearTimeout(typingTimer);
            if (\$Title.val()) {
              typingTimer = setTimeout(doneInput ,doneTypingInterval);
             \$eventId =  event.target.id;
              console.log(event.target.id);
            }

        });

When this event is fired a request is sent to DB, now i want if the request was successful i will display a message to the user, i have many DIV one the same page with different ID and different event say like on change event, Now i want to be able to know which particular Div return success so i used even.target.id which returns the ID as i desire, now when i test code it works as expected in chrome and in IE, but when i test on firefox ReferenceError: event id not define. $eventId is a global variable so i try to set the value to $eventId =""; to see if this can work but still it doesn't work, inicially i define it like this $eventId; any help on this, why this don't work on firefox. Thanks for any help

The problem is with firefox, In firefox, you have to receive event object in your event handler like \$Title.on('blur',function(event) this solves my problem
