Description
Hi!
I have written code (below) to be able to drag an input field onto another, but it seems that draggable swallos input[text].onfocus.
This results in the problem, that all draggable input fields act as disabled (firefox) and clicking the mouse does not focus them. I can edit the input field if I focus on them using the TAB key, but I have to traverse all the necessary tab-indexes.
So it seems draggable swallos the input[text].onfocus mouse event.
Is there a way to workaround this during bind-time?

In order to drag elements without activating the native text selection, Draggable disables the textselection by default, which also affects the input elements. You need use the handle-option to specify an element to use for dragging, then only that gets its text-selection disabled.
