drag-and-drop HTML from another browser window

While working on a commercial product, I came up with a way to allow
users to drag and drop bits of web pages into my site. This works
regardless of whether the source is from my site or not, and even
works with non-browser applications (such as Word) that can drop an
HTML representation of their rich text. Tested in IE and FF on Windows
and Linux:

Works very nicely I must say.

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.addEventListener = function(o, type, handler) {

Hey folks. I've built a table in a Java Applet that has several rows in it. I know you can click, hold down the button, then drag all the way through the table to select them all, BUT on release of the mouse, it blows up & leaves a Java stack trace. Is there any way I can fix the click & drag error? FYI, it only happens when I release the mouse in a area other then the table. I can't post the code because it involves too may files.

Being you can drag webparts from zone to zone, is there a way to control drag speed while dragging/scrolling up the page? I have a list of webparts that may go beyond the page. If a user wants to drag the bottom webpart up to the top, I was wondering if the speed of this drag/scroll action can be controlled. Thanks

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
