This documentation shows that the “start” event for a .draggable() element is not fired if a user clicks on it, but doesn’t move the mouse before releasing the click.
How can I detect if the user has clicked on the element without moving the mouse?
I want this is to overload the element. If the user drags the element, fine. Otherwise, do something else.

Have you tried using JQuery to attach a click event to the target? api.jquery.com/click
