HTML5 drag and drop images from a toolbar to a canvas
I have searched a lot, but I could not find a scenario which is relevant to my need. I want to drag and drop images from a toolbar to a canvas, not from a canvas to another canvas. Please help me on this. Thanks in advance Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/m1erickson/2Us2S/ Use jquery-ui to create draggable elements. $("#myToolbarImageElement").draggable(); Load these elements with data payloads which are key-value pairs. In your case this might be an image object that you want drawn on the canvas. $("#myToolbarImageElement").data("image",myImageObject); Set your canvas as a drop zone: $("#myCanvas")
