In HTML5: Drag and Drop in Depth, Bill Weinman shows how to make just about any web page element draggable with a combination of JavaScript and HTML5, a technique that has increased browser support and that eliminates the need for external libraries such as jQuery. The course covers how to detect drag-and-drop support in the user's browser, code a simple event listener, use a drop zone, and even receive dropped objects without a drop zone. A simple working example game, a practical implementation of drag-and-drop that can be applied to almost any web site, is also demonstrated. Exercise files are included with the course.

Topics include:

* Exploring the HTML/Javascript/CSS/DOM relationship
* Detecting drag and drop support
* Using the HTML5 draggable and dropzone attributes and onDragStart event
* Exploring different events
* Receiving drops with or without a drop zone
* Creating a simple game
