Drag and drop API not working

Question

I'm working on a group project for my software engineering course. To make a long story short I'm trying to use the drag and drop HTML API, but I'm not having any luck. Below is the html for the page I'm trying to implement the drag and drop on. There are multiple files within the project as this is a website, if there isn't enough information I will upload the other files at the request. In the HTML file below all I'm trying to do is drop hello <p> into the div1 <div> .

HERE IS THE CSS FILE USED GLOBALLY ACROSS THE WEBSITE:

    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-attachment: fixed;
    margin-top: 20px;
    box-shadow: 0 4px 8px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2), 0 6px 20px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.19);
}

The problem is you are grabbing the whole div instead of just the text .

Give your paragraph - <p> element an id and add your draggable & ondragstart attributes to it.

 function openNav() { document.getElementById("mySidenav").style.width = "250px"; document.getElementById("main").style.marginLeft = "250px"; } function closeNav() { document.getElementById("mySidenav").style.width = "0"; document.getElementById("main").style.marginLeft = "0"; } function allowDrop(ev) { ev.preventDefault(); } function drag(ev) { ev.dataTransfer.setData("text", ev.target.id); } function drop(ev) { var data = ev.dataTransfer.getData("text"); ev.target.appendChild(document.getElementById(data)); }

 <div class="div1" style="height: 100px; width: 100%; border: solid 2px black" draggable="true" ondrop="drop(event)" ondragover="allowDrop(event)"> </div> <div class="question"> <p id="hello" draggable="true" ondragstart="drag(event)"> Hello </p> </div>
