How to drag drag and drop across browsers?


Asked by Tripp Henson on Dec 02, 2021 FAQ



For DOMStringList, using the contains method yields the same result: All browsers have a event.dataTransfer.files property, but it is only filled for drop events and has a length of 0 during dragenter / dragover / dragleave (or is null altogether).
In respect to this,
HTML Drag and Drop API HTML Drag and Drop interfaces enable applications to use drag-and-drop features in browsers. The user may select draggable elements with a mouse, drag those elements to a droppable element, and drop them by releasing the mouse button.
Likewise, Press and hold the Shift key while you drag and drop to always move. Press and hold the Alt or Control+Shift keys while you drag and drop to always create a shortcut. This tutorial will show you how to change the default drag and drop action to always copy, move, or create shortcut for all users in Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10.
Also,
Built-in Browser Support: HTML5 Drag and Drop is supported in Firefox 3.5+, Chrome 3.0+, Safari 3.0+ and Internet Explorer 5.0 ( Note: that is not a typo — HTML5 Drag and Drop is based on work done by Microsoft in 1999 ). Because it is part of HTML5, I assume Opera support should be inevitable.
One may also ask,
Internet Explorer and Safari do not support drag & drop for folders, but do not prevent it. On all drag/drop events, they contain a "Files" entry in event.dataTransfer.items .
