HTML5 Game - Drag and Drop

Dragging-and-dropping shapes

The following code shows how to do drag-and-drop.
It is attaching a mouseover, mousedown, mousemove, mouseup, and mouseout event listener to the rectangle to handle different phases of the drag-and-drop operation.

Note

Drag-and-drop is handled with three phases:
Detect a mousedown event over a shape which begins the operation
Position the shape according to the mouse coordinates via the mousemove event listener
Drop the shape when the mouse button is released
