drag-and-drop

I am working on UI Design, where I need to use Html textarea object. The sample code is:

<textarea rows="5" cols="60" spellcheck="false" style="font-size:12px; font-family: Verdana;">
Abc
Xyz
Mnp
Pqr
</textarea>

I don't want to disable the textarea, since there are some cross-browser issues. If I point on 'y' in 'xyz' and drag it after text 'Mnp', it will be shifted as 'Mnpyz'. I want to avoid this drag and drop feature of text within the text area.
