official jQuery UI mouse widget source _mouseMoveDelegate _mouseUpDelegate _mouseStop document mouseup
💡 Result:
The **official jQuery UI mouse widget source** is [`ui/widgets/mouse.js`](https://github.com/jquery/jquery-ui/blob/main/ui/widgets/mouse.js) in the jQuery UI repository. ([github.com](https://github.com/jquery/jquery-ui?utm_source=openai))
In the current `main` source, `_mouseDown` creates `_mouseMoveDelegate` and `_mouseUpDelegate`, then binds them to the widget’s `document` for `mousemove` and `mouseup`. On mouseup, `_mouseUp` unbinds both delegates and calls `_mouseStop(event)` if a mouse interaction had started. ([github.com](https://github.com/jquery/jquery-ui/blob/main/ui/widgets/mouse.js))
The source also has a document-level `mouseup` handler that resets the shared `mouseHandled` flag; that is separate from the per-widget delegate that runs `_mouseUp`. ([github.com](https://github.com/jquery/jquery-ui/blob/main/ui/widgets/mouse.js))
This is the current `main` branch; you didn’t specify a release version.

Allow drag events over loading placeholders.
When a loaded field is dragged, jQuery UI uses document-level mousemove and mouseup handlers. The capture handler stops those events inside .frm_field_loading, so handleDragStop() may not run and the drag UI can remain active.
Keep blocking other placeholder interactions, but remove only mouseup and mousemove:

Approve, with two non-blocking notes.
Live check (Playground preview env, form with 37 fields, frm_load_field held so 27 placeholders stay):
- Base (
98df20b03): hovering a placeholder addsfrm-field-group-hover-targetto its row. - PR (
9f1885205): same hover and a click leave the row, selection and settings untouched, and no ajax request fires. - With loading released, formerly-placeholder fields hover, select and open their settings as before (
frm_field_id_65selected,frm-single-settings-65visible). - Dragging a field over a placeholder and releasing still ends the drag (helper removed). During a drag the pointer's hit target over the placeholder is the droppable
ul, so the capture-phasestopImmediatePropagationdoes not eat themouseup.
Not verified: ESLint, Oxlint, PHPUnit and Cypress show skipping on this PR, so they did not run. The PR has no test for the new behaviour; the repo's Cypress builder coverage would be the place for one. The minified js/formidable_admin.js was not rebuilt and diffed against source.
Notes (both non-blocking):
js/src/admin/admin.js:1903— new guard dereferences$row.get( 0 )before the existingrowOffset === undefinedempty-set check, so an empty jQuery set now throws instead of returning.js/src/admin/admin.js:11949— swallowingmousemove/mouseouton a placeholder also stops the handler that clears the previous row's hover target. The row you just left stays highlighted while the pointer sits on the spinner:
| } | ||
|
|
||
| function updateFieldGroupControls( $row, count ) { | ||
| if ( $row.get( 0 ).querySelector( ':scope > .frm_field_loading' ) ) { |

$row.get( 0 ) is undefined for an empty jQuery set, and this now runs before the rowOffset === undefined guard below, which exists to handle exactly that case. Callers pass $item.parent() and jQuery( list ), so I did not find one that is empty today ([Likely] fine in practice), but the early return used to be safe and now throws.

Observed live: hover a loaded field (Field 10), then move onto the placeholder below. .frm-field-group-hover-target stays on Field 10's row and the row stays highlighted until the pointer reaches another non-placeholder area, because mousemove on the placeholder never reaches maybeRemoveHoverTargetOnMouseMove on #wpbody-content. Screenshot in the review body.
Cosmetic only. If you want it gone, call maybeRemoveGroupHoverTarget() from ignoreLoadingFieldMouseEvent when the event is mouseover/mousemove, before the stopImmediatePropagation().

Approve. Both notes from my last review are fixed in f4f0c0e.
Live check (Playground preview env, a 40-field form with ajax load on, frm_load_field held so 30 placeholders stay), same mouse path on three builds:
- Base (
98df20b03): hovering a placeholder putsfrm-field-group-hover-targeton the placeholder's own row. - Previous head (
9f18852): the placeholder row is clean, but the last loaded row (Field 10) keeps the hover highlight while the pointer sits on the spinner. This is my old note 2. - This head (
f4f0c0e): no hover target anywhere on the placeholder. Field 10's highlight is cleared. - This head, also checked: a click on a placeholder selects nothing; a loaded row still takes the hover; returning to a placeholder clears it again; after loading is released a formerly-placeholder field hovers, selects and opens its settings; no page errors. With
frm_load_fieldreturning 500, the error placeholder takes no hover or selection (on base it still picked up the hover target). - Note 1 (
$row.get( 0 )before the empty-set check): now! row || ...atjs/src/admin/admin.js:1904. Read from source; no caller passes an empty set today, so I could not trigger it live. - The built
js/formidable_admin.jsmatches: the live runs above used it.
Not exercised: a fresh drag-and-release over a placeholder on this head (my scripted drag did not start; the earlier check on 9f18852 ended the drag cleanly and this commit's change only runs for events whose target is inside a placeholder). ESLint, Oxlint, PHPUnit and Cypress show skipped on this PR, so they did not run; no test was added for the new behaviour. Keyboard-driven selection paths were not checked in a browser.
