Remarks
This event fires on the source object after the ondragstart event. The ondrag event fires throughout the drag operation, whether the selection being dragged is over the drag source, a valid target, or an invalid target.
Example
This example shows when and where each event fires during a drag-and-drop operation by listing each event and the name of the object firing it in a list box.
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT>
var oNewOption;
// Code for dynamically adding options to a select.
function ShowResults()
{ // Information about the events
// and what object fired them.
arg = event.type + " fired by " + event.srcElement.id;
oNewOption = new Option();
oNewOption.text = arg;
oResults.add(oNewOption,0);
}
