Are you saying that the caret won't move to where the mouse > pointer is? On which browser did you test this behavior? Yes, that's correct -- I'm testing on Chrome. I'd like to drag and drop a file from the desktop into a position in the contentEditable with one action. But, it seems that I have to cancel the default action of drag (to get the file); which means the caret doesn't move. -Charles
