I don't know the specifics of the easydrag plugin, however, I have seen this as a common problem in drag-n-drop code/libraries. jQuery UI draggables (official release coming soon, now in SVN) gives you two options for handling this case:
1. dragPrevention(string) - You specify a jQuery selector. All matching child elements will allow normal mouse interaction, not initiating a drag operation. Ex: dragPrevention: 'a, input, button' 2. handle(string) - Again, a jQuery selector. Dragging can only be initiated on the matching element(s), allowing normal mouse interaction on the rest of the element. Ex: handle: 'div.dragHandle' - Richard On 8/27/07, polycarp <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Hey everybody!
