You can use jQuery UI’s Draggables feature. It allows you to set a callback function for when the drag starts. Documentation is at http://jqueryui.com/demos/draggable/#event-start. It also has a callback for during a drag.
You can already set callback functions for hover and click via jQuery’s click() and mouseover() events. http://docs.jquery.com/Events
