In Poker (Hold'em) where is "in front" in relation to you?

Often I'll hear players talking about folding when there is action "in front" of them. Does this refer to action taken after their move or before it?

In Texas Hold'em "Action in front of you" means someone makes a bet (more than just calling the big blind) before its your turn to act. Usually it means at least one player raising above the big blind and at least one additional player calling or re-raising.
