Ryan Scherf visited a site which used a drag & drop type download system where you drag an icon over another, then the download immediately starts. He realized this would be easy with the onslaught of the prototype.js and scriptaculous frameworks. Ryan Scherf shows us an example of using the built in Ajax drag & drop for Draggables / Droppables included in scriptaculous to achieve Drag to Download with Ajax.

“a site which used a drag & drop type download system” –> that obviously is panic.com … they’ve been using that technique for ages by now (more than 2 years at least).
Above that there’s nothing AJAX-alike to that script! It merely is an implementation of a script.aculo.us Droppable which changes the window.location.href when onDrop is fired.
Thank you for pointing this out. I have corrected the post.
