HTMLElement: dragend event
Baseline
Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since July 2015.
The dragend event is fired when a drag operation ends (by releasing a mouse button or hitting the escape key).
This event is cancelable and may bubble up to the Document and Window objects.
In this example, we have a draggable element inside a container. Try grabbing the element, dragging it, and then releasing it.
We make the element half-transparent while it is dragged, and listen for the dragend event to reset the element's opacity when it is released.
For a complete example of drag and drop, see the page for the drag event.
