Fires just before an editable element receives official focus by a user clicking or tabbing to the element. Editable elements include text-oriented form controls and body elements set to be editable (see the IE 5.5 contentEditable property of all elements in Chapter 9). A function invoked from this event handler can perform additional scripted actions, such as setting the color of the element text, before the user begins editing the content. |

| Typical Targets | |
Text form controls; rendered elements in edit mode (IE 5.5 or later); content governed by the DHTML Editing ActiveX control (see http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/browser/mshtml/). |
