Can anybody tell me how to drag an object from one browser window & drop it on another.
I'm only concerned with 95/98/NT operating systems.
cheers.

Thanks for letting me know that it can at least be done Michael.
However I was hoping for some pointers as to how to go about coding it. Do I use ondragstart,onmouseup,onmousedown? How can the mouse be changed to the usual "can't drop here" type icon when over the desktop, etc.
Any clues?
Thanks.
