You might recall that some time before yesterday’s Colouring In Drag and Drop Waterfall Reveal Tutorial‘s “Reveal Quiz” work, with Colouring In Drag and Drop Undo and Redo Tutorial, when we outlined potential uses …

• a scribbling or doodling mechanism (on a blank canvas)
• colouring in via a background image with clip art linework, perhaps …
• create a postcard (type of creation) via a background image, perhaps browsed for (or using the Take Photo or Video option for mobile) on your device, and overlay some scribbled (or doodled) wording

… we suggested the “postcard” usage, and today, we’re fortifying our processes regarding this, over some days. We have more work to do regarding data limits (even with hashtagging) using mobile platforms and the Take Photo idea, and we have some text positioning to fix also, but an idea off an email sharing (mainly hashtagged) link click by an emailee goes, is that they also get to open the “Drop Zone” canvas, on its own, as an extra popup window, not showing the (usually shown) webpage parts above this.

Also, today, we’ve improved on CSS functionalities regarding text styling. An example entry could now be …


Your Words~~over two lines. class=green { .green { color:green; font-size:42px; } }


… to create, for example some large green piece of text where you last clicked on the canvas. A subsequent entry, such as …


Green~~Meany. class=green


… can build off a previous dynamic class CSS styling definition. Also, there is a special class “glow” …

<style>

.glow:not(tr) {
-webkit-animation: glow 1s linear infinite alternate;
-moz-animation: glow 1s linear infinite alternate;
animation: glow 1s linear infinite alternate;
}

/* Thanks to https://www.w3schools.com/howto/tryit.asp?filename=tryhow_css_glowing_text */

@-webkit-keyframes glow {
from {
box-shadow: 0 0 3px #fff, 0 0 5px #fff, 0 0 37px #e60073, 0 0 9px #e60073, 0 0 11px #e60073, 0 0 13px #e60073, 0 0 15px #e60073;
}

to {
box-shadow: 0 0 24px #fff, 0 0 6px #ff4da6, 0 0 8px #ff4da6, 0 0 10px #ff4da6, 0 0 12px #ff4da6, 0 0 14px #ff4da6, 0 0 16px #ff4da6;
}
}

</style>

… we’ve allowed for, so not needing you to define, unlike the class=green example above.

Codewise, this involved …

• the changed colouring_in_was_numbers_guessing_game.php PHP coded Colouring In Game (and/or Colouring In World Reveal Game or Colouring In River Reveal Game Colouring In Mountain Reveal Game Colouring In Waterfall Reveal Game) you can also try for yourself, below …

And then there was the matter of the lesser River Reveal on double click display, and we fixed that, via writing a new “function plotariver(indexIntoRiversArray)” as below …

Previous relevant Colouring In Drag and Drop Mountain Reveal Game Tutorial is shown below.

Today’s blog posting has a “theme song” … highHi! Yes, onto yesterday’s Colouring In Drag and Drop World Reveal Sharing Tutorial‘s …

• World Reveal game … and …
• Rivers Reveal game … we use a lot of, what pans out to be the “World Reveal” ideas to present …
• Mountains Reveal game

… we just have Wikipedia to thank, regarding the content. Wikipedia is full of geospatial information smarts from the myriad of contributors, who have each contributed worthy Mountain description websites … so, thanks, everybody who contributes, there.

But we’re not just “making mountains out of molehills” today. Yes, we’re on the “sidetrack road” on adding a new event layer of functionality on top of the …

• ondragover event logic of these “Reveal” pen options … to, today, extending that to …
• ondblclick (of the “drop_ee” target element) event logic

… for those three “Reveal” game scenarios above, starting the day unsure if this “ondblclick” idea was, indeed, an event layer, independent, separated from the drag and drop realm. But, happily, separated, it is! Yay!!!!

Separatism can be a liberating thiang for the web application programmer. Less worry, less angst, about how one aspect to a web application project, might impact another.

So, given that we can prove that “ondblclick” element id=mytable event logic is available to us …


if (('' + document.URL + location.hash).replace('WorldReveal','=128506').replace('World%20Reveal','=128506').indexOf('=128506') != -1) {
selem=128506;
yourtzl='';
setTimeout(function(){
mwr(-128506);
document.getElementById('mytable').title+=String.fromCharCode(10) + String.fromCharCode(10) + 'Double click to display nearest TimeZone places and associated country list.';
document.getElementById('mytable').ondblclick=function(event){ nearestcountry(event); };
}, 10000);
} else if (('' + document.URL + location.hash).replace('RiverReveal','=127754').replace('River%20Reveal','=127754').indexOf('=127754') != -1) {
setTimeout(function(){
mwr(127754);
document.getElementById('mytable').title+=String.fromCharCode(10) + String.fromCharCode(10) + 'Double click to display nearest River mouth and nearest River source.';
document.getElementById('mytable').ondblclick=function(event){ nearestriver(event); };
}, 10000);
} else if (('' + document.URL + location.hash).replace('MountainReveal','=127956').replace('Mountain%20Reveal','=127956').indexOf('=127956') != -1) {
selem=127956;
yourtzl='';
setTimeout(function(){
mwr(-127956);
document.getElementById('mytable').title+=String.fromCharCode(10) + String.fromCharCode(10) + 'Double click to display nearest Mountain.';
document.getElementById('mytable').ondblclick=function(event){ nearestmountain(event); };
}, 10000);
}


… what can we achieve?

• World Reveal game … show 3 nearest TimeZone places to double clicked place in a popup window …
• Rivers Reveal game … show a nearest River for the start (the river mouth?) of the River co-ordinate string and a nearest River for the end of the River co-ordinate string (the river source?), if different, relative to double clicked position …
• Mountains Reveal game … show a nearest Mountain relative to double clicked position

… as per …

We only needed a changed experimental_drag_and_drop.htm Experimental Drag and Drop clientside HTML and Javascript basis helping out our PHP coded Colouring In Game (and/or Colouring In World Reveal Game or Colouring In River Reveal Game or Colouring In Mountain Reveal Game) you can also try for yourself, below, to achieve these “steep improvements”.

---

Previous relevant Colouring In Drag and Drop River Reveal Game Tutorial is shown below.

Today’s blog posting has a “theme song” … deep. Yes, onto yesterday’s Colouring In Drag and Drop World Reveal Sharing Tutorial‘s …

• World Reveal game … we use a lot of it’s ideas to present …
• Rivers Reveal game

… today, thanks to the data from HTTP://geojson.xyz rivers lake centerlines.

The interesting difference between these two functionalities, that share a World Map background image, is that to plot a river, no single cross is going to suffice. We need to do some grandparent innerHTML element nesting a …

• parent innerHTML element using …
  1. position:absolute;
  2. left:[minimumXco-ordinate]px;
  3. top:[minimumYco-ordinate]px;
  4. z-index:[large];

  … nesting …

• SVG … width=”[maximumXco-ordinate – minimumXco-ordinate]” height=”[maximumYco-ordinate – minimumYco-ordinate]”
• polyline … attribute “points” X,Y co-ordinate sets such that minumum X one will be 0 and minimum Y one will be 0
• initially invisible … becoming visible …
• if correct dragging or at the end of the dragging

… though those last two apply to the World Reveal game, as well. You might recall a lot of this going on when we presented Australian Indigenous Language SVG Overlay Tutorial. These SVG overlay ideas can be extremely useful, on occasions! The other choice was HTML div elements between the “dot” span ones and apply “diagonally across line” linear gradient style CSS we talked about at Earth Scanner Linear Gradient Leg Tutorial. All this diagonality can be fun to achieve!

Also added into the mix are lots of ways to click the plot elements to navigate to useful Wikipedia webpages, thanks.

It’s a semi-cloning scenario today, so the “level playing field” collaboration ideas have also been brought across …

Previous relevant Colouring In Drag and Drop World Reveal Sharing Tutorial is shown below.

When a lot of us think of games or quizzes, we think “level playing field”, at least at the start of a game. In other words, the way the game starts the players are faced with the same or similar conditions to play the game under. And so, onto the logic for the World Reveal game subsection of functionality of our Colouring In web application, as of yesterday’s Colouring In Drag and Drop World Reveal Geography Tutorial, today, we’ve added in logic so that …

• a World Reveal incarnation of the Colouring In web application can be shared via …
  1. email
  2. SMS

  … and …

• the first ten (as a default, and can be changed via a ?qnum=55 style of argument or #qnum=67 style of hashtag) questions are the same for the originator as the recipient

Encryption wise the simplest to share is alpha data and here it is with this. Country ISO-2 character code sharing needs no delimitation, just for us, looping through two characters (also used, along with function orflag below to make the draggable element into a Country flag emoji) at a time!

• it has intelligence regarding a “pen” type emoji element being dragged over a table full of cells
• it can handle background images
• it can involve text
• it can colour table cell background colours (and/or border part(s))

… and this is functionality allowing us to add a new “pen” drag type called “World Reveal” where a semi-transparent Mercator projection World Map image is underlayed beneath semi-transparent table cells, creating a “cloudy world effect”. The user is asked to reveal a country of choice to score in the game, those table cells dragged over becoming fully transparent, showing “uncloudy world” beneath …

If you think in terms of …


Annotation functionalities


… available to the user of our current interest, the Colouring In web application, up until today, we relied on user scribbling means to involve any “textual feeling” in this project.

But, today?! Well! That’s another kettle of fish! We’re happy to say …

We’re involving real text into the mix.

… regarding the ways you creatives out there want to express themselves.

And so, onto yesterday’s Colouring In Drag and Drop Animated Background Images Tutorial we have some new involvement of …

• tr (table row) elements given a new id attribute arrangement and some new event onclick logic … and also …
• tbody (table body) element used as the creator’s palette (as far as positioning goes, though, as we go to air, we’re still using the tbody for co-ordinate positioning (and we wanted svg+xml text background imagery at first) but now overlay span element text over the table)

Sad about the full involvement of tbody svg+xml background image text idea not happening, but we feel that we will return to this, on paper, satisfying, and cute, idea. We have successfully applied svg+xml text ideas to tailored cursors, but we do remember a struggle and size limitations?! The attempt is there in the code for another person to do better with, if they wish.

Here is some relevant new Javascript code …

And that is why, after yesterday’s Colouring In Drag and Drop Multiple Background Image Tutorial, we turn our attention to a first …


animated slides


… presentation idea, now that we understand and can share multiple images (or slides).

This first incarnation just uses Javascript logic to simulate what an animated GIF can do. In other words, we have …

• a set of images … presented via a …
• delay … we just hardcode for 4 seconds to start with

… as with the table ondblclick (on double click) newly arranged …


document.getElementById('mytable').title+='Double click to toggle the display of an animated GIF presentation of your background images.';
document.getElementById('mytable').ondblclick=function(){ popupanimation(); };


… event logic calling …


var usual=true, imans=[], iusual=0, kdelay=4000;

function popupanimation() {
var splitthis='';
if (usual && document.getElementById('xdstyle').innerHTML == '' && ('' + document.getElementById('dstyle').innerHTML).toLowerCase().indexOf('url(') != -1) {
document.getElementById('xdstyle').innerHTML=encodeURIComponent(document.getElementById('dstyle').innerHTML);
splitthis+=document.getElementById('dstyle').innerHTML;
}
if (document.getElementById('ddstyle')) {
if (usual && document.getElementById('xddstyle').innerHTML == '' && ('' + document.getElementById('ddstyle').innerHTML).toLowerCase().indexOf('url(') != -1) {
document.getElementById('xddstyle').innerHTML=encodeURIComponent(document.getElementById('ddstyle').innerHTML);
splitthis+=document.getElementById('ddstyle').innerHTML;
}
}
if (splitthis != '') {
imans=splitthis.replace(/URL\(/g, 'url(').split('url(');
document.getElementById('dstyle').innerHTML='';
if (document.getElementById('ddstyle')) {
document.getElementById('ddstyle').innerHTML='';
}
}
if (usual) {
usual=!usual;
setTimeout(showtheanim, kdelay);
} else {
usual=!usual;
setTimeout(function(){
if (document.getElementById('xdstyle').innerHTML != '') {
document.getElementById('dstyle').innerHTML=decodeURIComponent(document.getElementById('xdstyle').innerHTML);
}
if (document.getElementById('ddstyle')) {
if (document.getElementById('xddstyle').innerHTML != '') {
document.getElementById('ddstyle').innerHTML=decodeURIComponent(document.getElementById('xddstyle').innerHTML);
}
}
}, eval(100 + kdelay));
}
}

function showtheanim() {
if (iusual >= eval('' + imans.length) || usual) { iusual=0; }
if (!usual) {
document.getElementById('dstyle').innerHTML='<sty' + 'le> #mytable { background:URL(' + imans[iusual].split(')')[0] + '); background-repeat:no-repeat; background-size: contain; </sty' + 'le>';
iusual++;
setTimeout(showtheanim, kdelay);
}
}


… making use of the two new static HTML div elements …


<div id="xddstyle" style="display:none;"></div>
<div id="xdstyle" style="display:none;"></div>

Previous relevant Colouring In Drag and Drop Multiple Background Image Tutorial is shown below.

The ability to add multiple background images in HTML and using CSS can be very useful. We’ve done this in the past, and knew the important CSS properties to fill in were …

• background-image
• background-repeat
• background-size
• background-position

… which should be given comma separated list values for each background-image set member.

Below, we drill down a bit …

• background-image … comma separated list of data-URIs and/or image URLs (and perhaps, optionally, the one linear gradient prefixing opacity measure)
• background-repeat … easy … no-repeat comma separated list
• background-size … if one you might use contain but from there on, today we use a width percentage value and auto for the height component (eg. 33% auto)
• background-position … top left, bottom right, top right, bottom left, center center, top center, bottom center, left center, right center … in rotation (and order is today’s thinking) … beyond 9 there will be overlaying (and maybe even before then, depending)

… as used, in the new Javascript, further to yesterday’s Colouring In Drag and Drop Keyboard Events Tutorial …

Previous relevant Colouring In Drag and Drop Keyboard Events Tutorial is shown below.

Despite us having precedents to turn to regarding …


establishing a layer of keyboard onkeydown event logic for a non-textbox HTML element


… we’ve had to look up so many websites for advice, thanks, that it must have been that “day of discovery” you should persevere with, for reference points into the future.

Alas, little of it can be used on mobile platforms. Their setup precludes these keyboard independency possibilities we really like about non-mobile keyboard event functionality. It can set up a “whole new woooorrrrllllddd” for your web application designs!

What was the motivation for our interest? Well, we have a mouse with a mouse wheel, and it occurred to us how useful the wheel could be when dragging and some content is below the fold, and rather than lose the dragging, you can use the mouse wheel to navigate to those areas of the webpage, still dragging your draggable element, with our Colouring In web application.

And so, onto yesterday’s Colouring In Drag and Drop Mixed Platform Collaboration Tutorial …

This excellent link taught us …	When tabindex’s value is set to a negative number, its element can be programmatically focused via JavaScript.
This excellent link taught us …	el.focus({preventScroll: true}); # can focus to element el without involving any programmatic scrolling
This excellent link taught us …	Pondered … can i simulate mousewheel up or down with javascript … and our findings … no! But interesting.
This excellent link taught us …	Mused on … Drag, drop and mousewheel? … and our findings … yes for physical mouse wheel usage (hence today’s interest) … but no, regarding Javascript logic. Again, very interesting.
This excellent link taught us …	We didn’t follow through on it but … How to scroll the window automatically when mouse moves bottom of the page using jquery … intimates you could use jQuery code to detect user scrolling towards “below the fold” and warn the user or perhaps take some action … interesting.
This excellent link taught us …	element.scrollIntoView({block: ‘end’}); # scrolls into view to the bottom of element
This excellent link taught us …	Setting up a timed Javascript functionality with codelines like … document.body.scrollTop = document.body.scrollTop + 200; … could get around the Drag and Drop API disallowing programmatical scrolling during dragging operations.

… to arrive at …

Previous relevant Colouring In Drag and Drop Mixed Platform Collaboration Tutorial is shown below.

The urging within a lot of Responsive Web Design online advice is to use “proportional” units such as …

• %
• vw and vh

… as much as possible, and all that is true. But the “px” unit is still relevant on occasions, and even needed on occasions, and we’d like to explain this a little in terms of an approach we took, on top of the work of yesterday’s Colouring In Drag and Drop Undo and Redo Tutorial, where we tried to improve the sharing qualities of “colouring in of a clip art background” scenario (fairly obviously insulting to the child who’s done their best but the computer’s let them down), where precision is so important with the sharing, and the collaboration occurs between devices of vastly different platform and device dimensions. We started our …

• the Responsive Web Design units are not as useful at the other “email recipient” end unless that “email recipient” end’s device dimensions (and/or perhaps platform) matches the originator’s device dimensions (and/or perhaps platform) … instead …
• here is a case where the use of “px” units helps put the webpage HTML data on a “level playing field” for all, awaiting Responsive Web Design aspects still useful regarding the table cell dimensions (for example)

In other words, there is a place for “px” units, in this example, and others, and can be there sometimes not cruelling any Responsive Web Design critiques.

Previous relevant Colouring In Drag and Drop Mobile Tutorial is shown below.

Yesterday’s Colouring In Drag and Drop Sharing Tutorial sharing and collaboration code for our latest Colouring In web application was tested on our MacBook Air laptop only. As you can imagine, that can mean that code working there is not always going to work the same way on mobile touch devices, but it was not, as it panned out for us, regarding the reason we thought it would be about. We thought …

• it’s bound to be an issue with dragging event workings regarding mobile … but it took us quite some time to stop burying our head in the sand and, instead, “keeping it simple, Señor” (ie. the KISS principle, and yes, Señor is not a spelling mistake, thank you very much for your concern) … and testing another “dumber sounding” but panning out to be true, in this case …
• issue was to do with table cell widths and heights for table cells with no content acts differently for mobile than non-mobile (effectively scrunching cells up)

… the trigger for us being that the “drop” event.target.id kept on showing up as “mytable”. That happened hours ago! We beavered away with x,y proportional co-ordinate calculations and eventually after all that not helping (for 2 maybe 3 hours), started applying a table cell border, which gave crazy results, and then it tweaked?! Sheeeeesssshhhhh!

Can you teach yourself the KISS principle? Maybe you get better over time. Another opinion can be great, though, with that alternative view, you hadn’t even thought of, often the result of such conversations.

Back to today, we …

Made sure table “tr” row elements were for a better defined (proportionate to table) width …
<?php for ($thisrow=1; $thisrow<=$across; $thisrow++) { $cthisrow='0000000000' . $thisrow; $rowsofar='<tr style="width:100%;" id=tr' . substr($cthisrow, -$iacross, $iacross) .

Made sure table “td” cell elements were proportional … initially, expressed in “viewport” (percentage style) dimension terms …
<style> td.tdone { width: 1vw; height: 1vh; } </style>
… and if not the default number of cells across and down …

Previous relevant Colouring In Drag and Drop Sharing Tutorial is shown below.

We’re hoping yesterday’s Colouring In Drag and Drop Settings Tutorial new Colouring In web application is seen as a creative’s tool. As such, you’re going to want to share and collaborate … some of you, that is?!

You’re going to want to hashtag … oops … we’re going to want to hashtag. Yes, there is lots of data to share, but it worries us even involving hashtagging, how much there is, underlying, regarding that table element acting a bit like a television’s pixels. How do you effectively share even a snapshot of that?

But the difference between us and the television is, at least for a lot of people’s creations, the table is likely to be untouched, so can’t we “nickname” these repeated table cell scenarios? If you just said “indeed”, we’d concur! Take a look at some global Javascript variables we thought might help …

var prefixnickchar='.';
var prefixfor='<td class="tdone" id="';
var suffixnickchar='-';
var suffixfor='" class="tdone" style="text-align:center;" data-answer="1"></td>';


… and for those untouched cells you’re saving more than (because of encryption) the length difference between the “nickchars” above and their “fixfor” counterparts for each “boring” table cell encountered. And all this eases our mind somewhat, as a design, realized, on the way to the emailee or smsee this way …

Why the difference in approach? Let’s start with hashtag methodologies. This arrangement can leave everything about a webpage, in place, regarding the user actions on a webpage, while the Javascript can detect that change in …


location.hash


… dynamically. In other words some dragging canvas drawings with pen “width” 2 can be combined with some using pen “width” 1 in the same user creation.

But when the data management involves get ? (or &) address line URL arrangements, this involves navigation to a new incarnation of the webpage creation logic, effectively wiping the webpage slate clean. This is apt for the “number of table cells across” data item, because the HTML content of the table element is not just affected, but is totally structured, according to this user setting.

Lately, more and more, we’ve been hashtagging data to dynamically created “a” link “mailto:” email or “sms:” SMS communication body webpage URL links. An email link or SMS link, from the recipient’s point of view is a “brand new start” that can address either or both of these data conduit arrangements, we’re getting happier and happier to discover …

Today we’re honing in on …

• drag and drop methodology …
• dragover event … value adding where …
• drop element(s) are cells of an HTML table element (also a drop element)

… as our interest. We scouted around for the best “design match” and came up with the arrangements existing when we presented Numbers Guessing Game Tutorial some time ago now.

And if we succeed with some form of value adding here, we have another idea for the ideas we’re presenting today. Spoiler alert! Yes, it can be made to be useful.

As such we’ve …

Added toggleable “show where contemplated” value added border where dragover logic
<?php $templategame=file_get_contents('./experimental_drag_and_drop.htm'); if (isset($_GET['notice'])) { $templategame=str_replace('>-</span>', '><a style="text-decoration:none;cursor:pointer;" title="Stop showing where contemplated as well." onclick="location.href=' .

';">-</a></span>', $templategame); } ?>
Tweaked dragover logic
target.addEventListener("dragover", (ev) => { if (lastbco) { lastbco.style.backgroundColor='white'; lastbco=null; } if (ev.target.outerHTML.indexOf('<table') != 0 && ev.target.outerHTML.indexOf(' data-piece="') != -1) { if (ev.target.outerHTML.split(' data-piece="')[1].substring(0,1) == (itisthiscmove + ev.target.outerHTML.split(' data-piece="')[1].substring(0,1)).substring(0,1)) { lohfulloh=ev.target.outerHTML; console.log("LOHfulloh=" + lohfulloh); } } //console.log("dragOver " + ev.target.id + ' ' + ('' + ev.target.style.backgroundColor).replace('white','') + ' ' + document.body.innerHTML.indexOf('tab' + 'lece' + 'llb' + 'c')); //if (navigator.userAgent.match(/Android|BlackBerry|iPhone|iPad|iPod|Opera Mini|IEMobile/i)) { // document.title='ev.preventDefault(); //4'; //} ev.preventDefault(); if (('' + ev.target.id).indexOf('td') == 0 && ('' + ev.target.style.backgroundColor).trim().replace('white','') == '' && document.body.innerHTML.indexOf('Numbe' + 'rs Guessi' + 'ng Ga' + 'me') != -1) { //document.getElementById(sourceid).style.opacity='0.6'; lastbco=ev.target; ev.target.style.backgroundColor='pink'; if (document.getElementById('mybut')) { if (document.getElementById('mybut').innerHTML.indexOf(' ..

Flag any continued “show where contemplated” interest
var secsmore=''; if (('' + document.URL + decodeURIComponent('' + location.hash)).indexOf('notice=') != -1 && ('' + decodeURIComponent('' + location.hash)).indexOf('no_tice=') == -1) { secsmore='¬ice=y'; } if (document.URL.indexOf('rjmprogramming-com-au.translate.goog') != -1) { location.href=document.URL.split('&score=')[0] + '&score=' + score + '&secs=' + secs + secsmore; } else { location.href=document.getElementById('callback').value + '?score=' + score + '&secs=' + secs + secsmore; }

… to, as the user requests, add some table cell border enhancements (as our “value adding“) to our tweaked third draft PHP game (helped out by the changed experimental_drag_and_drop.htm Experimental Drag and Drop clientside HTML and Javascript basis), as the user drags the draggable element over the table droppable element and its cohort table cell elements.

On your smaller devices we found the Numbers Guessing Game a bit hard to use.

We fully concur with any adage that goes …

You learn most from your mistakes

… just as we’re curious about “the things that go wrong”, and not having them repeat! Same with pooches!

Take our first to second draft PHP game (to the opera, would be preferable). We wondered why, occasionally, with the “first draft” it would hang. It took us a half day to realize, as you could yourself have tweaked to a lot quicker if you had followed the adage …


Hanging issues mostly team up with code within a loop


The situation, we’ve reasoned, is that we had that PHP $badlist variable store a comma separated list of planets with either zero moons or more than one moon randomly selected representing it. We’d assumed, yesterday, not that we’d put it in words, but in logic, that this list would not (have the same length or) be the same as a (new $goodlist variable) list of planets with either zero moons or selected while collecting the random list of Moon/Planet combinations … ie. we assumed in the list would be a Planet with only one of its Moons randomly selected … mistake!!! Better is …

<?php

$goodlist=',Mercury,Venus,';
$badlist=',Mercury,Venus,';

while (strlen($goodlist) == strlen($badlist)) {
$goodlist=',Mercury,Venus,';
$badlist=',Mercury,Venus,';

$correctans=rand(0,8);
$sofar=';';

$j=rand(0, (-1 + sizeof($wikidesignations)));

It can be interesting turning a “concept” (or even a “proof of concept” web application) into an, on the side, “game” web application, and that way, learn what’s possible via user action. This is how we felt about yesterday’s Experimental Drag and Drop Primer Tutorial and that teamed with the wonder about how we could add some useful complexity to our “Experimental Drag and Drop” web application’s …

Can “inheritance” be harnessed to make it work for some complexity of nested HTML elements inside that “Drop Zone” element when the document.body’s onload event happens?

Yes

Experimental Drag and Drop Primer Tutorial

We’ve added the word experimental into today’s blog posting title, mainly because our first of two inspirational webpage sources (last modified on 23/02/2023) regarding somewhat alternative “Drag and Drop” functionalities told us, regarding the DataTransfer object informational “DataTransfer” webpage …

Experimental: This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.

… but our testing of the methodologies on various platforms hasn’t totally failed yet on any of the several desktop and mobile platform scenarios we’ve tried. On mobile, we just held on for a sustained touch (down) to make it possible. So maybe the industry has caught up with the ideas? We’re hoping so, because “drag and drop” is a kind of natural thing online users think of to do, and people associate it with “getting things done” we reckon.

Anyway, we relied on the great source code of the second of two inspirational webpages DataTransfer: setData() method, thanks …

The DataTransfer.setData() method sets the drag operation’s drag data to the specified data and type. If data for the given type does not exist, it is added at the end of the drag data store, such that the last item in the types list will be the new type. If data for the given type already exists, the existing data is replaced in the same position. That is, the order of the types list is not changed when replacing data of the same type.

… to get us going with our “proof of concept” web application (also shown below) using these techniques, about which we think some of you readers will be interested?!
