Hello there,

I have an element is outside iframe and I need to drag it to the iframe. Problem is it is not working (or more likely I am missing something) .

Simplified html is:

<head>

</head>

blah blah

tabindex="-1"></iframe>

<div class="gwt-Label">Email Message</div>

</div>

<tbody>

<tr>

</td>

</tr>

</tbody>

</table>

</div>

<div>

<div class="title">Form Properties</div>

<ol>

<li draggable="true"><img src="/static/images/icons/textfield18.gif" class="icon"

style="width: 18px; height: 18px;" title="Text">

</li>

</ol>

</div>

</body>

</html>

I am trying to drag <div class="gwt-Label" id="text">text</div> to <iframe class="rich-text-area" style="width: 698px; height: 360px;"></iframe>. Inside iframe is just body tag.

code that I am using:

WebElement source= driver.findElement(By.id("text"));

WebElement target = driver.switchTo ().frame(1).findElement(By.tagName("body"));

Actions actions = new Actions(driver);

actions.dragAndDrop(source, target);

Any ideas? I will even offer you a beer if you can solve this and you are in Vancouver, BC.

html5 draggable events aren't working / implemented in selenium (from my experience and the few things I've tried).

You may have to synthesize your own javascript events and send that the JS executor

thanks. I will try to find solution that works for me, don't want to go down JS route (this is is a very small test case, not worth the effort)
