MarkAustin · 2025-02-27T05:37:50+0000

In this tutorial we will create a Transfer Image To Other Div using JavaScript. This code will dynamically move an image when user drag it to the targeted div area. The code use ondragstart() to bind the image id when dragging it, when drop into div element an event ondrop() is use to retrieve the image properties in order to assign it as a child element of a div. You can apply this script to your system, it is a user-friendly program feel free to modify it.

We will use JavaScript to add some new interactive element that is written in the HTML. It extends your website experience and add an additional feature that help you engage with the user.
