Hi there,

I want to have a draggable input textbox on the stage (it will b placed ontop of an image of a tshirt).

I want the user to be able to enter text and then move the textbox around to where they want it on the tshirt.

I know how to make a movieclip draggable, I have been using this:

```php

on (press) {
	
	startDrag(this, false, 240, 90, 290, 290) // target, lockcenter, t, l, b, r

}
on (release) {
			  stopDrag();
}

```

But I’m not sure how to make an input textbox draggable! Is this even possible?!

Thanks for any help! 🙂
