Example

The following example shows how to use the onmoveend event with a movable DIV and have the background color and inner text change when the mouse button is released and the DIV stops moving.
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Editing events sample page</TITLE>
<SCRIPT>
// Turn on 2D positioning
document.execCommand("2D-position",false,true);
// Fires when the onmovestart event is fired
function fnHandleMoveStart() {
var oDiv = event.srcElement
oDiv.style.backgroundColor = "green";
oDiv.innerText = "I Started Moving";
}
// Function called when the onmoveend event is fired
function fnHandleMoveEnd() {
var oDiv = event.srcElement
oDiv.style.backgroundColor = "red";
oDiv.innerText = "I Stopped";
}
</SCRIPT>
