[html] drag drop files into standard html file input

Awesome work by @BjarkeCK. I made some modifications to his work, to use it as method in jquery:

$.fn.dropZone = function() {
  var buttonId = "clickHere";
  var mouseOverClass = "mouse-over";

  var dropZone = this[0];
  var $dropZone = $(dropZone);
  var ooleft = $dropZone.offset().left;
  var ooright = $dropZone.outerWidth() + ooleft;
  var ootop = $dropZone.offset().top;
  var oobottom = $dropZone.outerHeight() + ootop;
  var inputFile = $dropZone.find("input[type='file']");
  dropZone.addEventListener("dragleave", function() {
    this.classList.remove(mouseOverClass);
  });
  dropZone.addEventListener("dragover", function(e) {
    console.dir(e);
    e.preventDefault();
    e.stopPropagation();
    this.classList.add(mouseOverClass);
    var x = e.pageX;
    var y = e.pageY;

    if (!(x < ooleft || x > ooright || y < ootop || y > oobottom)) {
      inputFile.offset({
        top: y - 15,
        left: x - 100
      });
    } else {
      inputFile.offset({
        top: -400,
        left: -400
      });
    }

  }, true);
  dropZone.addEventListener("drop", function(e) {
    this.classList.remove(mouseOverClass);
  }, true);
}

$('#drop-zone').dropZone();

Working Fiddle
