FireFox - How to disable a frame page from changing location when an image is dragged on to it?

I have a frameset like this:

<FRAMESET cols="25%,75%">
<FRAME src="page1.html" name="directory">
<FRAME src="page2.html" name="display">
</FRAMESET>

page2.html has an image like this:

<img src="test.gif">
In Firefox, if I drag the image from the right pane to the left the
browser navigates to the image (and the frames are lost).

Is there anyway to disable this? I need to take other action on the
dragdrop event in the left pane without have the page navigate to the
dropped image.

Regards

Nothing reliable you can do, no. Perhaps you could have the right frame
check on the left frame using setTimeout, and if it is an image tell it
to history.back() but I don't know if this is much better than the
problem.
