you can do it by

if ($("#id").is(":focus")) {
  alert('focus');
}

Its much easier to check by using jquery. Using jquery u can do it like this

if($"#div/inputtocheck").is(":focus"))
{
//do something u want if it is in focus
}

The :focus returns true if the div is in foucs and false if it is not in focus

You can use document.activeElement.
