Drag and drop are part of the HTML5 standard.

Drag and drop

Drag and drop is a common feature where you grab an object and then drag it to another location.

In HTML5, drag and drop is part of the standard, and any element can be dragged and dropped.

Browser support

Internet Explorer 9+, Firefox, Opera, Chrome, and Safari support dragging.

Note: Safari 5.1.2 does not support dragging.

HTML5 drag and drop example

The following example is a simple drag and drop example:

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<script>
function allowDrop(ev)
{
ev.preventDefault();
}
function drag(ev)
{
ev.dataTransfer.setData("Text",ev.target.id);
}
function drop(ev)
{
ev.preventDefault();
var data=ev.dataTransfer.getData("Text");
ev.target.appendChild(document.getElementById(data));
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="div1" ondrop="drop(event)"
ondragover="allowDrop(event)"></div>
<img id="drag1" src="img_logo.gif" draggable="true"
ondragstart="drag(event)" width="336" height="69">
</body>
</html>
Copy after login

It may look a bit complicated, but we can study different parts of the drag and drop event separately.

Set the element as draggable

First, in order to make the element draggable, set the draggable attribute to true:

<img draggable="true">
Copy after login

What to drag - ondragstart and setData()

Then, specify what happens when the element is dragged.

In the above example, the ondragstart attribute calls a function, drag(event), which specifies the data to be dragged.

dataTransfer.setData() method sets the data type and value of the dragged data:

function drag(ev)
{
ev.dataTransfer.setData("Text",ev.target.id);
}
Copy after login
