DropTarget Markup Definition

<telerik:RadDropTarget runat="server" ID="RadDropTarget1">
</telerik:RadDropTarget>

JavaScript to Get Reference to RadDraggable

<script>
    function DropTargetClientSideReference() {
        let dropTarget; // Client-Side Object
        let dropTargetElement; // HTML element

        // Client-Side Object using $find()
        dropTarget = $find('<%= RadDraggable1.ClientID%>');

        // Client-Side Object using $telerik.findControl()
        dropTarget = $telerik.findControl(document, "RadDropTarget1");

        // If using jQuery, or just JavaScript to find the Element itself, there are two steps to get client-side reference

        // Step 1: Get the HTML element

        // Find the element using $get()
        dropTargetElement = $get('<%= RadDropTarget1.ClientID%>');

        // Find the element using jQuery.
        // Note that "$telerik.$()" is the same as "$()" or "jQuery()"
        dropTargetElement = $telerik.$('[id$=RadDropTarget1]')[0]; // same as $('[id$=RadDraggable1]')[0]; or jQuery('[id$=RadDraggable1]')[0]

        // Find the Element using QuerySelector
        dropTargetElement = document.querySelector('[id$=RadDropTarget1]');

        // Step 2: call the ".control" property on the HTML element which will return the Client-Side object
        dropTarget = dropTargetElement.control;
    }
</script>
