Removes default drag behaviour on image in Netscape

[kiran]

I am trying to implement a rubber band/image selection script. For
that I need to remove the default drag behaviour on an image. I am
able to do this in IE but not Netscape. Does any one have a solution?

Pls look below for IE code:

var moz = ((document.all) ? false : true);
var ie = ((document.all) ? true : false);
var ElementUtil = new Object();
ElementUtil.add EventListener = function(o, type, handler) {
if(ie) {
o.attachEvent(" on" + type, handler);
}
else if(moz) {
o.addEventListe ner(type, handler, false);
}
}

// Removes default drag behaviour on image in ie
ElementUtil.add EventListener(i mg, "drag", function() {return false;});

Thanks in advance

That is correct - but have you studied the rest of it? It appears not,
since you are not yet in compliance with its views. It is indeed a
working document, indicating current thinking among a considerable group
of Usenet experts. It is therefore better, as an indication of well-
considered practice, than some ancient material written for users of
some local hierarchy.

So please cease your outdated rantings, and learn to live, as the
majority of the German people have - with some past difficulty - been
persuaded to do, in harmony with the civilised world.

And do not revive ancient threads, unless you have a contribution of
absolute value to make; it is a childish practice. You are not as
important as you think you are.
