jQuery UI Interaction : Draggable
Using jQuery UI draggable plugin , you can cause certain element draggable by
mouse.
The element which are going to drag obtain a 'ui-draggable' class. This
element obtain a 'ui-draggable-dragging
' class while
dragging.
Also, if you want to drag and drop this element, you need to incorporate
jQuery UI Droppable plugin, which provides a drop target for draggables.
All callbacks (start, stop, drag) receive two arguments: The original browser
event and a prepared ui object, view below for a documentation of this object
(if you name your second argument 'ui'):
- ui.helper - the jQuery object representing the helper that's
being dragged
- ui.position - current position of the helper as { top, left }
object, relative to the offset element
- ui.offset - current absolute position of the helper as { top,
left } object, relative to page
