buttons can't made draggables by jQuery UI draggable()

button, jquery-ui, jquery-ui-draggable

Solution

Using `cancel: false` seems to work for me.

    $(function() {
    $( "#draggable" ).draggable({
        cancel: false
    });
});

jsfiddle

I guess without the cancel only the default click event of the button fires and with cancel you prevent the default click event.

Problem

The `jQUery UI draggables` sample named `Default` says that: Enable draggable functionality on any DOM element. But I'm not able to make them work on `button`s elements. I modified the `Default` sample to look like this: I just changed the div element to a button one with `type="button"`: ``` <!doctype html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>jQuery UI Draggable - Default functionality</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="../../themes/base/jquery.ui.all.css"> <script src="../../jquery-1.9.1.js"></script> <script src="../../ui/jquery.ui.core.js"></script> <script src="../../ui/jquery.ui.widget.js"></script> <script src="../../ui/jquery.ui.mouse.js"></script> <script src="../../ui/jquery.ui.draggable.js"></script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="../demos.css"> <style> #draggable { width: 150px; height: 150px; padding: 0.5em; } </style> <script> $(function() { $( "#draggable" ).draggable(); }); </script> </head> <body> <button type="button" id="draggable" class="ui-widget-content"> <p>Drag me around</p> </button> <div class="demo-description"> <p>Enable draggable functionality on any DOM element. Move the draggable object by clicking on it with the mouse and dragging it anywhere within the viewport.</p> </div> </body> </html> ``` How I can make the draggables functionality work on a button element?
