dragging images

[louloizides]

I'm trying to drag a bunch of images in a Google maps-esque style. The
javascript is pretty simple, but whenever I go and drag over a large
image the image toolbar comes up in IE and the image looses focus. How
do I get around this? Is there a way to disable that toolbar?

You could try using divs instead of images. Use CSS to size the div to
the dimensions of the image and set the image as the div's background.
Then you should be able to drag the div around no problem.

Great idea. Thanks!
