Ultra small code to drag everything in HTML pages

simplest method I know and use to drag everything in HTML pages, using just three rows of Javascript code.

Was thinking about doing this, stumbled accross this useful little snippet...

The ability to drag and drop content on a page and have it save the order can make for a great user interface and is actually relatively easy to execute with a few lines of jQuery. You’ll need to include the jQuery user interface library which you can find here: Jquery Google API. All the files needed to get this up and running are in the download at the bottom of this post. In this tutorial we’re going to be looking at 2 main PHP pages. the index.php page which contains the contents and functionality to perform the drag and drop and the updateList.php file which is a simple piece of code to update the listOrder column in the database using PHP and MySQL. Additionally you will need to add your database details to the connect.php file in the download package.

We’ve all seen the brilliant functionality on Mashable where news stories and interesting articles can be shared to social networking sites; the functionality is driven by the images accompanying the articles; you click and hold on an image and can then drag it into a toolbar to share it. It’s brilliant and intuitive, and in this article I’m going to show you how we can replicate this behavior with jQuery and jQuery UI.

Textarea Behavior Something that I never realized before is that text areas are drop targets by default. Using this property alone (without registering drag events on the source elements), we can emulate drag and drop behavior of non-linked images between different documents. If you drag any of the images on the right side to the textarea you will see the url of the image in it. This works in all browsers except, as anyone could expect, in IE, which doesn't allow you to drag images to input fields.
