How To Change Mouse Over To Onclick

How can I change this code instead of dragging you just click two elements to exchange the position of the two elements? I wanted to exchange two tiles through clicking one then an

Solution 1:

Here’s how to swap pieces using mouse clicks instead of drags

In the mouseup handler:

  • Check if the user hit any piece.

  • If the user hit a piece and no piece was previously “selected”, then “select” this piece.

  • If the user hit a piece and there was as previous selection, then swap the 2 pieces and reset the pieces.

  • If the user clicks outside of all pieces, clear any “selected” piece.

Here is working code for you to look at and a Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/m1erickson/a75xz/
