Hello,

Out of curiosity, what is DESIGNTIMEDRAGDROP? I can't find anything on MSDN
or Google.

It appears in some (but not all) of my table declarations in the HTML view.
For example:

<TABLE id="tblMain" cellSpacing="0" cellPadding="0" width="100%" border="0"
runat="server" DESIGNTIMEDRAGDROP="386">

Thank you.

Thanks for the reply, John. I found that page, too, but it sure doesn't
explain much:

<snip>
When you drag a control out of the Design view of the Mobile Designer and
drop it in another window or in the toolbox, the DESIGNTIMEDRAGDROP="xx"
attribute may be added to the control (where "xx" is a number that varies).
</snip>

Now we know that DESIGNTIMEDRAGDROP is added when dragging a control onto
the form from another form or the toolbox, and "xx" varies. But why is it
there? How does the IDE use this? Are there any unseen negative effects if
we manually remove it? From what I've seen so far, it looks absolutely
useless, but it has to be there for a reason.

Any ideas?
