Example

The following example, which appears embedded in the <head> section of an HTML document, displays a message to the user when the user drags a selection from the current <p> element containing the ondragstart="DisplayMessage" attribute in the current page.

<head>
<title>ondragstart Example</title>
<script id=clientEventHandlersVBS language=vbscript>
<!--

Sub DisplayMessage
'Displays message to user

    MsgBox "This message is displayed when the user drags a selection within the <p> element in the current document."

End Sub

-->
</script>
</head>

The <p> section code below calls the DisplayMessage procedure located in the <head> section of the document. When the user drags a selection from within the <p> element in the document, a message will be displayed.

<body>
<p ondragstart = "DisplayMessage">Select this text and drag it to view a message.</p>
</body>

The following line of code sets the ondragstart attribute to the DisplayMessage procedure call. The index value zero (0) denotes the <p> tag as the only <p> element in the current page and the first <p> element in the all collection.

ActiveDocument.body.all.tags("p").item(0).ondragstart = "Display Message"
