object because the user clicked on another element, tabbed to another
element, or a script invoked the <span class="literal">setActive( )</span> or
<span class="literal">focus( )</span> method of another element. If an element
has focus and is the active element, the following event sequence
fires en route to losing focus:
<span class="literal">onbeforedeactivate</span>,
<span class="literal">ondeactivate</span>, and <span class="literal">onblur</span>.
Because <span class="literal">onbeforedeactivate</span> is cancelable (but
<span class="literal">ondeactivate</span> is not), cancel this event to prevent
an element from deactivating or losing focusprovided you have
a good reason to do this other than annoying your visitors.
