Create a draggable paragraph in HTML5

Use the draggable attribute to create a draggable paragraph. Enable or Disable the drag using the values true and false.

Example

You can try to run the following code to implement draggable element and drag an element −

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
   <head>
      <style>
         .drag {
            float: left;
            width: 100px;
            height: 75px;
            border: 1px dashed #876587;
            margin: 15px;
            padding: 10px;
         }
      </style>
   </head>

   <body>
      <div class = "drag" ondrop = "drop(event)" ondragover = "dropNow(event)">
         <p ondragstart = "dragStart(event)" ondrag = "draggingNow(event)"
         draggable = "true" id = "dragtarget">This is demo paragraph to be dragged!</p>
      </div>
      <div class = "drag" ondrop="drop(event)" ondragover = "dropNow(event)"></div>
      <div id="box"></div>
      <p>Drag the left box to the right or drag the right box to the left.</p>
      <script>
         function dragStart(event) {
            event.dataTransfer.setData("Text", event.target.id);
         }
         function draggingNow(event) {
            document.getElementById("box").innerHTML = "Dragged successfully!";
         }
         function dropNow(event) {
            event.preventDefault();
         }
         function drop(event) {
            event.preventDefault();
            var data = event.dataTransfer.getData("Text");
            event.target.appendChild(document.getElementById(data));
            document.getElementById("box").innerHTML = "The element dropped successfully!";
         }
      </script>
   </body>
</html>
