:-moz-focusring

Non-standard
This feature is non-standard and is not on a standards track. Do not use it on production sites facing the Web: it will not work for every user. There may also be large incompatibilities between implementations and the behavior may change in the future.

Summary

The :-moz-focusring CSS pseudo-class is similar to the :focus pseudo-class, but it only matches an element if the element is currently focused and a focus ring or other indicator should be drawn for that element. If :-moz-focusring matches, then :focus also matches, but the converse is not always true - it depends on whether the user agent has focus ring drawing enabled and how the element was focused. Whether the user agent has focus ring drawing enabled can depend on things like the settings of the operating system the user is using, so the precise behavior of this pseudo-class can vary from platform to platform depending on each platforms' particular focus best practices (defaults) or user modified settings.

Syntax

:-moz-focusring

Example

To specify the appearance of an element when it's focused, you can use this pseudo-selector like this:

mybutton:-moz-focusring {
  outline: 2px dotted;
}
