If a draggable object contains an <a>-tag one can't start dragging the object on the area occupied by the anchor.

Is there a simple way around this ?

By default DD will not drag an Anchor, but you can use the removeInvalidHandleType method on the DD instance to remove the A as an invalid handle.

http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/docs/YAH ... HandleType

Code:

var dd = new YAHOO.util.DD();
dd.removeInvalidHandleType('a');

That should take care of it..

Thanks for quick reply

That works so far but unfortunately it also executes the href immediately which isn't quiet what i would expect.
If the mouse is released after a drag operation it shouldn't resolve to a click for the a-tag. Would that be possible?
