HTMLElement: draggable property
Baseline Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since July 2015.
The draggable
property of the HTMLElement
interface gets and sets a Boolean
primitive indicating if the element is draggable.
It reflects the value of the draggable
HTML global attribute.
Value
A Boolean
primitive that is true
if the element is draggable, false
otherwise.
Examples
The following example shows how to enable or disable the element's ability to drag via script:
js
const draggableElement = document.querySelector(".draggable-element");
const notDraggableElement = document.querySelector(".not-draggable-element");
// enable the target element's ability to drag
if (!draggableElement.draggable) {
draggableElement.draggable = true;
}
// disable the target element's ability to drag
if (notDraggableElement.draggable) {
notDraggableElement.draggable = false;
}
