This type are supported by the Chrome and IE, in Firefox still underway (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=687787).

Thanks, but I'd prefer that this stay on the original component. Lets discuss with WG chairs if you still feel strongly about moving it. Related to these focus events: their uniqueness is that they fire before focus changes, and that they bubble. I believe historically they also were the only events that carried the related target data (focus/blur were historically standard Event objects). 106853 6 travil 2014-05-27 19:59:08 +0000 Cloned to Bug 25897 in the WHATWG component to help with convergence. 121045 7 mike 2015-06-16 10:21:27 +0000 Making this a higher priority to actively seek more feedback on from implementers and webdevs. Also, see use-counter data about this at https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=25897#c10 126208 8 travil 2016-04-27 17:01:43 +0000 HTML5.1 Bugzilla Bug Triage: Moved to Github issue: https://github.com/w3c/html/issues/278 To file additional issues please use the W3C HTML5 Issue tracker: https://github.com/w3c/html/issues/new Thanks!
