Example

You can use this event to provide visual feedback to a form filler in conjunction with the mouseEnter event. For example, you can use this event to return the border or background color of an object to its original value to help visually indicate to form fillers that they are no longer working in a specific field.

For a detailed example of using the mouseExit event, see Highlighting fields in response to form filler interaction.
