One of the more interesting actions in visual interfaces is the ability to drag an object and drop it on a selected target. Pretty much like what we do in real life at the supermarket. Grab a beer – drag to cart – drop it in the cart. But there are attributes in the product that it would be interesting to unveil in an application. For example, when you grab a beer you can feel if it’s cold or not, and when you get to the checkout you pay the price of the bottle, which is a hidden attribute of the bottle. Today we will learn how to create drag & drop using jQuery and adding hidden attributes to the draggable items.
