ParameterDescription
CLASS=classname Specifies the class of the tag being defined. This is used to associate a sub-classed style sheet with the tag.
ID=value An SGML identifier used as the target for hypertext links or for naming particular elements in associated style sheets. Valid ID values must begin with a letter. The underbar character, "_", may be used in the ID name. The ID should be unique throughout the scope of the document.

onkeydown onkeypress
onkeyup onmousedown
onmousemove onmouseout
onmouseover onmouseup

Remarks

Both the start and end tags are required.
