How to move or drag the span into the Div element. My element structure is the Div -> Span. Here I need to drag the Span inside the div element without drag beyond that div. I have tried this by calculating pixels but didn't give a solution. I don't need a native onDrag method.
I need to calculate pixels and drag the Span inside the Div. Here is my code.
var handleClick = false;
window.dragging = function(event) {
if (handleClick) {
var bar = document.getElementsByClassName('bar')[0],
handle = document.getElementsByClassName('handle')[0];
var left = bar.offsetWidth - handle.offsetWidth;
tops = (bar.offsetWidth - handle.offsetWidth);
pixel = left < ((pixel - 0) / 1.233445) ? left : ((pixel - 0) / 1.233445);
handle.style.left = pixel + "px";
}
}
document.addEventListener('mouseup', function() {
handleClick = false;
});
window.handlersDown = function() {
handleClick = true;
}
.bar {
width: 100px;
height: 30px;
border: 1px solid;
position: relative;
}
.handle {
width: 20px;
height: 20px;
left: 2px;
top: 5px;
background-color: rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.5);
position: absolute;
}
<div class="bar">
<span class="handle" onmousedown="handlersDown()" onmousemove="dragging(event)"></span>
</div>
I have modified your code a bit and changed the selectors from class to ID. I also would advice you to use external libraries to make it more easy for you. Besides that I also removed the event listeners inside your HTML and translate them to Javascript. Is this what you want?
window.onload = addListeners();
function addListeners(){
document.getElementById('handle').addEventListener('mousedown', mouseDown, false);
window.addEventListener('mouseup', mouseUp, false);
}
function mouseUp()
{
window.removeEventListener('mousemove', spanMove, true);
}
function mouseDown(e){
window.addEventListener('mousemove', spanMove, true);
}
function spanMove(e){
var bar = document.getElementById('bar')
var span = document.getElementById('handle');
// variables
var bar_width = bar.offsetWidth;
var handle_width = span.offsetWidth;
// stop scroll left if the minimum and maximum is reached
if(e.clientX < bar_width - handle_width - 1 && e.clientX > 1){
span.style.left = e.clientX + 'px';
}
}
#bar {
width: 100px;
height: 30px;
border: 1px solid;
position: relative;
}
#handle {
width: 20px;
height: 20px;
left: 2px;
top: 5px;
background-color: rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.5);
position: absolute;
}
<div id="bar">
<span id="handle"></span>
</div>
