Avoid default drag and drop behaviour in FF3
Fierfox 3 offers the user the possibility to drag and drop images around on the pages by default. Which is nice.... I guess. But this behaviour can mix with drag and drop routines written in javascript. So how to cancel the default drag & drop in Firefox 3?
document.addEventListener("draggesture", function(event){event.stopPropagation()},true);
or if you are using jquery: $(document).bind("draggesture",function(){return false})
I haven't seen any mention of this on the net so far so I thought is was worth mentioning it.
(For IE use $(document).bind("drag",function(){return false}))
document.addEventListener("draggesture", function(event){event.stopPropagation()},true);
