Example:

modules.require(['dom', 'jquery'], function(dom, $) {

/*
<div class="block1">

Example:

modules.require(['dom'], function(dom) {

dom.getFocused(); // a reference to the element in focus

});

containsFocus method

This method checks whether the focus is on the DOM element passed in the argument or one of its descendants.

Accepted arguments:

  • domElem {jQuery} – The DOM element to check. Required argument.
