Flowplayer Dragging

I was work­ing with Flow­player today, and for some weird rea­son you “drag” the player along with your mouse when ever you’re chang­ing the vol­ume or mov­ing the time slider (progress bar), you’re prob­a­bly using Fire­fox and HTML5.

The trick is to make the con­tainer tag (I’m using <a id=“player”>, so my tag is a) un-draggable. Yea, appear­antly some tags are nat­u­rally drag­gableby default in HTML5, and I guess Anchor tags are one of them.

Any­way, just add draggable=“false” and will fix your problem.

Sam­ple:

<a id="player" href="../my-video.flv" draggable="false"></a>
