 * Hi guys
 * I’m very curious to know if there are any known issues with drag n drop type 
   html5 code WITHIN posts using custom fields. My code works fine outside of WP
   environment but once I try to implement it within posts it starts freaking out
   and the item being dragged ‘jumps’ to around 1/4 of a page away from the cursor,
   and this is obviously of no use. It seems to run fine in Chrome by the way but
   all other browsers have the same problem
 * I’m using the TwentyFourteen theme – could it be a theme issue??
 * Please, any advice would be most welcome.
 * Many thanks in advance
 * Terry

 * So, after checking in two other (older) themes I had on my localhost setup I’ve
   established that it’s not a ‘theme’ issue. It’s definitely something within the
   WordPress setup that’s freaking out the HTML5/JS code. The item being dragged
   always seems to jump around the same distance from the cursor – if that’s any
   help.
 * Oh, and this is all on my Localhost setup so I can’t include a link.
 * Thanks again
 * Terry
