How to Drag and Drop in JavaScript(怎樣通過JavaScript拽動窗口)

JavaScript excels at modifying the DOM of a Web page, but we usually only do simple things with it, such as creating image rollovers, making tabs, etc. This article is going to show you how to create items on your page that you can drag and drop.

There are several reasons you might want to encorporate this drag and drop ability into your Web pages. One of the simplest reasons is to reorganize Data. As an example, you might want to have a queue of items that your users can reorganize. Instead of putting an input or select box next to each item to represent its order, you could make the entire group of items draggable. Or perhaps you want to have a navigation window on your site that can be moved around by your users. Then there's always the simplest reason: because you can!

There's really not much involved with dragging an item around on your Web page. First we have to know where the mouse cursor is, second we need to know when the user clicks on an item so that we know we should be dragging it, and finally we need to move the item.

Capturing Mouse Movement

To start we need to capture the mouse coordinates. This is done by adding a function to document.onmousemove:

view plain | print | ?
1 document.onmousemove = mouseMove; 
2  
3 function mouseMove(ev){ 
4     ev           = ev || window.event; 
5     var mousePos = mouseCoords(ev); 
6
7  
8 function mouseCoords(ev){ 
9     if(ev.pageX || ev.pageY){ 
10         return {x:ev.pageX, y:ev.pageY}; 
11     } 
12     return { 
13         x:ev.clientX + document.body.scrollLeft - document.body.clientLeft, 
14         y:ev.clientY + document.body.scrollTop  - document.body.clientTop 
15     }; 
16
Demo - Move your mouseMouse X Position:    Mouse Y Position: 

We must first explain the event object. Whenever you move the mouse, click, press a key, etc., an event is fired. in Internet Explorer this event is global; it's stored in window.event. In Firefox, and other browsers, this event is passed to whatever function is attached to the action. Since we attached the mouseMove function to document.onmousemove, mouseMove gets passed the event object.

To make ev contain the event object in every browser we OR it with window.event. In Firefox the " || window.event" will be ignored since ev already contains the event. In IE ev is null so it will get set to window.event.

Since we'll need to obtain the mouse coordinates many times over this article we make a mouseCoords function that takes one argument: the event.

Again we run into differences between IE and other browsers. Firefox and other browsers use event.pageX and event.pageY to represent the mouse position relative to the document. If you have a 500x500 window and your mouse is in the middle, pageX andpageY will both be 250. If you then scroll down 500 pixels pageY will now by 750.

Contrary to this, IE decided to use event.clientX and event.clientY to represent the mouse position relative to the window, not the document. In our same example clientX and clientY will both be 250 if you put your mouse at the middle of a 500x500 window. If you scroll down on the page, clientY will remain 250 since it is measured relative to the window and not where you are on the document. As a result we need to add the scrollLeft and scrollTop properties of the document body to our mouse position. Finally, the document in IE isn't actually at the 0,0 position. There is a small (usually 2px) border surrounding it.document.body.clientLeft and clientTop countain the width of this border, so we add those also to our mouse position.

Fortunately since we now have our mouseCoords function we don't have to worry about this again.

Capturing Mouse Clicks

Next we need to know when your mouse button is pressed and when it is released. If we skip this step you would be "dragging" items whenever your mouse happened to move over them. This would be both annoying and counterintuitive.

There are two more functions that help us here: onmousedown and onmouseup. We previously attached a function todocument.onmousemove, so it only seems logical that we would attach functions to document.onmousedown anddocument.onmouseup. If we attach a function to document.onmousedown, however, our function would get fired on any object we click on: text, images, tables, etc. We only want certain items on our page to be draggable so we instead attach a function to theonmousedown event of whatever we want to move.

view plain | print | ?
1 document.onmouseup = mouseUp; 
2 var dragObject     = null
3  
4 function makeClickable(object){ 
5     object.onmousedown = function(){ 
6         dragObject = this
7     } 
8
9  
10 function mouseUp(ev){ 
11     dragObject = null
12

We now have a variable, dragObject, that contains any item you click on. If you release the mouse button dragObject gets set to null. So if dragObject != null we know that we should be dragging something.

Moving an Item

We now know how to capture mouse movements and clicks. All that's left to do is move around whatever we want to drag. First, to move an item to exactly where we want it to be on a page, the style position of that item must be set to 'absolute'. Setting an item's position to absolute means that when you set a style.top or style.left on the item, the measurements are relative to the top-left of your page. Since all of our mouse movements are also relative to the top-left of our page, this is generally the way to go.

Once we set item.style.position='absolute', all we have to do is change the top or left position of the item and voila, it's moved!

1 document.onmousemove = mouseMove; 
2 document.onmouseup   = mouseUp; 
3  
4 var dragObject  = null
5 var mouseOffset = null
6  
7 function getMouseOffset(target, ev){ 
8     ev = ev || window.event; 
9  
10     var docPos    = getPosition(target); 
11     var mousePos  = mouseCoords(ev); 
12     return {x:mousePos.x - docPos.x, y:mousePos.y - docPos.y}; 
13
14  
15 function getPosition(e){ 
16     var left = 0; 
17     var top  = 0; 
18  
19     while (e.offsetParent){ 
20         left += e.offsetLeft; 
21         top  += e.offsetTop; 
22         e     = e.offsetParent; 
23     } 
24  
25     left += e.offsetLeft; 
26     top  += e.offsetTop; 
27  
28     return {x:left, y:top}; 
29
30  
31 function mouseMove(ev){ 
32     ev           = ev || window.event; 
33     var mousePos = mouseCoords(ev); 
34  
35     if(dragObject){ 
36         dragObject.style.position = 'absolute'
37         dragObject.style.top      = mousePos.y - mouseOffset.y; 
38         dragObject.style.left     = mousePos.x - mouseOffset.x; 
39  
40         return false
41     } 
42
43 function mouseUp(){ 
44     dragObject = null
45
46  
47 function makeDraggable(item){ 
48     if(!item) return
49     item.onmousedown = function(ev){ 
50         dragObject  = this
51         mouseOffset = getMouseOffset(this, ev); 
52         return false
53     }
