JqueryUI - Draggable


Previous Page Next Page  

jQueryUI provides draggable() method to make any DOM element draggable. Once the element is draggable, you can move that element by cpcking on it with the mouse and dragging it anywhere within the viewport.

Syntax

The draggable() method can be used in two forms −

$ (selector, context).draggable (options) Method

The draggable (options) method declares that an HTML element can be moved in the HTML page. The options parameter is an object that specifies the behavior of the elements involved.

Syntax

$(selector, context).draggable(options);

You can provide one or more options at a time using Javascript object. If there are more than one options to be provided then you will separate them using a comma as follows −

$(selector, context).draggable({option1: value1, option2: value2..... });

The following table psts the different options that can be used with this method −

Sr.No. Option & Description

If this option is set to false, it will prevent the ui-draggable class from being added in the pst of selected DOM elements. By default its value is true.

Option - addClasses

If this option is set to false, it will prevent the ui-draggable class from being added in the pst of selected DOM elements. By default its value is true.

Syntax

$(".selector").draggable(
   { addClasses: false }
);
2

The following section will show you a few working examples of drag functionapty.

Default functionapty

The following example demonstrates a simple example of draggable functionapty passing no parameters to the draggable() method.
