Does that mean IE9 now ignores it or is there a bug in IE9?

Also prevents right clicking and makes it un-selectable.

I’m using:

//Home Button

function mouseOverHome()
{
document.getElementById(“home”).src =”images/navigation bar/homeOUT.jpg”;
document.ondragstart = function () { return false; };
}
function mouseOutHome()
{
document.getElementById(“home”).src =”images/navigation bar/home.jpg”;
document.ondragstart = function () { return false; };
}

So why does this not prevent the image from being dragged in FF?

@Bryan – You are correct…

document.ondragstart is actually a JScript (Microsoft) only method. I am pretty certain it is not defined in the ECMAScript documentation. David’s script will work just fine in non MS browsers too, though, since JavaScript allows object augmentation. In non MS browsers, this script will simply add a new method object to the document object – which is mostly inconsequential. I suppose if you’re concerned about modifying the document hash, you could always try something like this:

if(document.ondragstart)
{
document.ondragstart = function() { return false; };
}

The mootools version I imagine would look something like..

window.addEvent(‘dragstart’,function(e) { if(e) { var evt = new Event(e).stop(); } });

just my two bits.
