Javascript DOM ondragenter Event via addEventListener() method

Introduction

In JavaScript, using the addEventListener() method: 

object.addEventListener("dragenter",
       myScript);

This example uses the addEventListener() method to attach "dragstart", "dragenter", "dragleave", "dragover" and "drop" events to the document object.

Drag the p element back and forth between the two rectangles:

View in separate window

  border: 1px solid #aaaaaa;
}

<div class="droptarget"></div>
<p id="demo"></p>

<script>
document.addEventListener("dragstart", function(event) {
  event.dataTransfer.setData("Text", event.target.id);
});
document.addEventListener("dragenter", function(event) {
  if ( event.target.className == "droptarget" ) {
    document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = "Entered the dropzone";
    event.target.style.backgroundColor = "lightblue";

document.addEventListener("dragover", function(event) {

});

document.addEventListener("drop", function(event) {
