gotpointercapture | ongotpointercapture event

Dispatched prior to the dispatch of the first event after pointer capture is set for a pointer.

Note As of Internet Explorer 11, the Microsoft vendor prefixed version of this event (MSGotPointerCapture) is no longer supported. Instead, use the non-prefixed lowercase name, gotpointercapture, which is better for standards compliance and future compatibility.
