In This post we will learn how One can implement Drag And Drop Functionality in visualforce page.
So I create a visualforce page to send email with attachment and in this page we have following component :
- A Form with a file upload button
- A drag and drop section
- send email button
- user information text areas
Here is the screenshot of the visualforce page
Steps to be followed :
- Create a VF page that would contain the following details(fields)
Email address(multiple)
Subject
Date
Body(rich text editor)
Attachment(multiple attachment with drag n drop) - Controller class for the visualforce page
Visualforce page code :
<apex:page controller="DragnDropController " sidebar="false" showHeader="false" >
<head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js">

<apex:slds />
