mouseEnter event

Example

You can use this event to provide visual feedback to a form filler in conjunction with the mouseExit event. For example, you can use this event to change the border or background color of an object to help visually indicate to form fillers that they are working in a specific field.

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