Can't get focusout to work like I want

I'm having more problem with jquery selector... I'm inserting user form sith POST ajax, and I might have more than one form with the same class at once.

I've manage to grab the last form inserted with this line :

var NewForm = $(".myform").last();

and it does the job ok as I cant use :

$(NewForm).css()...

To set the curent form display. Now I'm trying to have some "focusout" event to trigger. When I place the following code, the focusout event work, but for all ".myform" class.

$('.myform input[name="test"]').focusout(function() {
   Alert('This Work');
});

I would need only the last form to have the focusout event attach. I've tried the following :

$(NewForm).children('input[name="test"]').focusout() {
   Alert('this is not working');
});

without success, I've also replace "children".

the HTML is similar to this : 

<div id="main">
   <div class="myform">
      <form class="formtype">
          <input name="test">
      </form>
   </div>
</div>

Thank you for your input!

You can use this:

$('input[name="test"]', NewForm).focusout() {
   Alert('this is not working');
});

That is, using the context parameter so you search for your selector only inside the NewForm element.
