>From my recent digging, when you select an element to be dragged (DragTarget), try:
// move this element to the "top" of the display, so it is (almost) // always over other elements DragTarget.parentNode.appendChild( DragTarget ); AND // turn off all pointer events to the dragged element, this does 2 things: // 1) allows us to drag text elements without selecting the text (if it is text) // 2) allows us to find out where the dragged element is dropped DragTarget.setAttributeNS(null, 'pointer-events', 'none'); Remember to turn the pointer event back on after the drop.
