prototype doesn't offer this facility.
scriptaculous offers most of it.

using dragdrop.js (included via scriptaculous.js?load=dragdrop)

new Draggable(elementId);

Droppables.add(containerid, { onDrop: function() { alert('Something was
dropped on me'); } });

I can't remember what parameters are passed to onDrop, i think one is the
element dropped, another is the droppable -class object-...
To 'snap' like you're suggesting, you can either do some fancy move stuff or
just appendChild the draggable to the droppable, but if you do this,
remember to append it back to the original body when it gets moved, or
you'll have z-index style problems due to the draw order.
