+  listener for <code title="event-dragstart"><a href="#event-dragstart">dragstart</a></code> that
+  stores the data being dragged.<p>The event handler typically needs to check that it's not a text
+  selection that is being dragged, and then needs to store data into
+  the <code><a href="#datatransfer">DataTransfer</a></code> object and set the allowed effects
+  (copy, move, link, or some combination).<p>For example:<pre>&lt;p&gt;What fruits do you like?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;ol ondragstart="dragStartHandler(event)"&gt;
+ &lt;li draggable data-value="fruit-apple"&gt;Apples&lt;/li&gt;
+ &lt;li draggable data-value="fruit-orange"&gt;Oranges&lt;/li&gt;
+ &lt;li draggable data-value="fruit-pear"&gt;Pears&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;/ol&gt;
+&lt;script&gt;
+  var internalDNDType = 'text/x-example'; // set this to something specific to your site
+  function dragStartHandler(event) {
+    if (event.target instanceof HTMLLIElement) {
+      // use the element's data-value="" attribute as the value to be moving:
+      event.dataTransfer.setData(internalDNDType, event.target.dataset.value);
+      event.effectAllowed = 'move'; // only allow moves
+    } else {
+      event.preventDefault(); // don't allow selection to be dragged
+    }
+  }
+&lt;/script&gt;</pre><hr><p>To accept a drop, the drop target has to listen to at least three
+  events. First, the <code title="event-dragenter"><a href="#event-dragenter">dragenter</a></code>
+  event, which is used to determine whether or not the drop target is
+  to accept the drop. If the drop is to be accepted, then this event
+  has to be canceled. Second, the <code title="event-dragover"><a href="#event-dragover">dragover</a></code> event, which is used to
+  determine what feedback is to be shown to the user. If the event is
+  not canceled, then the feedback (typically the cursor) is updated
+  based on the <code title="dom-DataTransfer-DropEffect"><a href="#dom-datatransfer-dropeffect">dropEffect</a></code> attribute's
+  value, as set by the event handler. Finally, the <code title="event-drop"><a href="#event-drop">drop</a></code> event, which allows the actual drop
+  to be performed. This event also needs to be canceled so that the
+  <code title="dom-DataTransfer-DropEffect"><a href="#dom-datatransfer-dropeffect">dropEffect</a></code>
+  attribute's value can be used by the source (otherwise it's
+  reset).<p>For example:<pre>&lt;p&gt;Drop your favourite fruits below:&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;ol class="dropzone"
+    ondragenter="dragEnterHandler(event)"
+    ondragover="dragOverHandler(event)"
+    ondrop="dropHandler(event)"&gt;
+&lt;/ol&gt;
+&lt;script&gt;
+  var internalDNDType = 'text/x-example'; // set this to something specific to your site
+  function dragEnterHandler(event) {
+    // cancel the event if the drag contains data of our type
+    if (event.dataTransfer.types.contains(internalDNDType)
+      event.preventDefault();
+  }
+  function dragOverHandler(event) {
+    event.dataTransfer.dropEffect = 'move';
+    event.preventDefault();
+  }
+  function dropHandler(event) {
+    // drop the data
+    var li = document.createElement('li');
+    var data = event.dataTransfer.getData(internalDNDType);
+    if (data == 'fruit-apple') {
+      li.textContent = 'Apples';
+    } else if (data == 'fruit-orange') {
+      li.textContent = 'Oranges';
+    } else if (data == 'fruit-pear') {
+      li.textContent = 'Pears';
+    } else {
+      li.textContent = 'Unknown Fruit';
+    }
+    event.target.appendChild(li);
+  }
+&lt;/script&gt;</pre><hr><p>To remove the original element (the one that was dragged) from
+  the display, the <code title="event-dragend"><a href="#event-dragend">dragend</a></code> event
+  can be used.<p>For our example here, that means updating the original markup to
+  handle that event:<pre>&lt;p&gt;What fruits do you like?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;ol ondragstart="dragStartHandler(event)" ondragend="dragEndHandler(event)"&gt;
+ <em>...as before...</em>
+&lt;/ol&gt;
