I'm wondering how to change during dragging (dragover/dragenter) icon/cursor when I dragenter for example to deny or allow section. Of course, I can move with cursor a part of DOM positioned absolutely, but I'm interested in native HTML5 solution.
Thanks!
Drag and Drop Process If you want to drag an element, you need to set the draggable attribute to true for that element. Set an event listener for dragstart that stores the data being dragged. The event listener dragstart will set the allowed effects (copy, move, link, or some combination).
HTML Drag and Drop (DnD) is a feature of HTML5. It is a powerful user interface concept which is used to copy, reorder and delete items with the help of mouse. You can hold the mouse button down over an element and drag it to another location. If you want to drop the element there, just release the mouse button.
Firstly, you need to mark the element (image in this case) as draggable which you want to drag. Now, you need to specify three attributes that will call the respective events or functions – ondragstart, ondragover, and ondrop. Finally, calling the respective JavaScript function will do the job.
You are after dropEffect:
Initialize it in dragstart:
event.dataTransfer.effectAllowed = "copyMove";
Update it in dragenter:
event.dataTransfer.dropEffect = "copy";
