Hello:
I am stuck thinking about this if I have a grid or container div, inside this div I have multiple elements of one types like other divs or pictures or paragraphs etc.

How can I make these elements drag-able inside this div, I want each element to be dragged alone, and I want them to be dragged freely to different positions around the grid or container div?

What kind of dragging are you talking about? You can drag the content, like picture or text, into other div or elements where the elements are on their own position or you can move the element itself on the window and re-organize the position. If the situation is the first one then Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov answer will do. Otherwise you will have look for free plugins or develop one by yourself.

If you are using HTML+JavaScript only, you many need to use the HTML5 dragging feature. Please see:
