-moz-user-input CSS property

Deprecated

Avoid using this feature in new projects. This feature may be a candidate for removal from web standards or browsers.

Non-standard: This feature is not standardized. We do not recommend using non-standard features in production, as they have limited browser support, and may change or be removed. However, they can be a suitable alternative in specific cases where no standard option exists.

In Mozilla applications, -moz-user-input determines if an element will accept user input.

As of Firefox 60, this property can no longer grant an element the ability to accept user input if it normally does not. It may only be used to disable user input.

The user-input property is currently not on a standards track.
