draggable #
::: section-content
The draggable
global attribute is an
enumerated
attribute that indicates whether the element can be dragged, either with
native browser behavior or the
HTML Drag and Drop
API.
The draggable attribute may be applied to elements that strictly fall
under the
HTML
namespace,
which means that it cannot be applied to
SVGs. For more
information about what namespace declarations look like, and what they
do, see
Namespace crash
course.
draggable can have the following values:
true: the element can be dragged.false: the element cannot be dragged.
::: {#sect1 .notecard .warning}
Warning: This attribute is
enumerated
and not Boolean. A value of true or false is mandatory, and
shorthand like <img draggable> is forbidden. The correct usage is
<img draggable="false">.
:::
If this attribute is not set, its default value is auto, which means
drag behavior is the default browser behavior: only text selections,
images, and links can be dragged. For other elements, the event
ondragstart
must be set for drag and drop to work, as shown in this
comprehensive
example.
