similar to: Scriptaculous Sortable Element Issue

Hi Everyone, I posted this last month and unfortunately, I didn''t recieve any replies. Maybe this time I''ll have better luck. I originally had my sortable element list working properly like so: <ul id="sortable_list"> <% @items.each do |item| %> <li id="item_<%= item.id %>"><%= image_tag "dragme.gif"

Using Rails to generate a sortable list, I get the draggable/sortable page elements, but Ajax never fires back the post-sorted list. (I''ve checked with IE & Firefox, the "save this order to the DB" controller hasn''t been called.) The View: <p>Drag to sort.<span id="sort_info"></span></p> <ul id="sort1">

Hi all, When using sortable lists, a click anywhere in a <li> element will trigger the "sort_by_dragging" mode, and have the clicked element follow the mouse. The active area is the entire <li> element. Is there a way to either : - limit the active/triggering "area" to a part of the <li> element (like a luggage handle) or - prevent a part of the

Folks, It has been a whole day spent on this but I still can''t get my mind around the most probably very stupid/basic mistake here... First, the code I use: <h3>List A</h3> <ul id="lista" > <li id="item1"> Item 1</li> <li id="item2"> Item 2</li> <li id="item3"> Item 3</li> </ul>

I was experimenting with using some interesting CSS styles with <dl> <dt> and <dd> elements. But then I needed to be able to make this list a sortable_element in Rails, and it did not work. I had to convert it all to <ul> and <li>. Is there a reason why sorting can''t work within definition lists? I searched the list archive and found the

I''ve gone through Chad Fowler''s recipe for creating a drag and drop sortable list, and have been trying to extend this to a sortable tree. Has anyone come up with or seen code which allows drag and drop sorting (altering the position and parent_id variables of the relevant objects) but for data in a nested tree rather than a list form? - Justin

When a ''draggable'' element is made ''sortable'', it no longer follows the mouse horizontally when you drag it. Is there a solution/workaround? TIA Alain

I''m having some difficulty adding drag-and-drop sorting to my application. I''m hoping that someone can help me figure out what I''m doing wrong: #view <table> ... <tbody id="item-list-body"> <tr id="view-item-<%= item.id %>"....</tr> </tbody> ... <%= sortable_element(''item-list-body'',

I have made a sortable list which is sortable by dragging & dropping the list elements. It works, but the order of the elements will not be updated in the database. Hopefully someone could help me, or tell me what I''m doing wrong. Thnx! Rgds, Eric Controller: album_controller.rb class AlbumController < ApplicationController def show_sort_album @photos =

Hi, I am creating a sortable list using this code: <%= sortable_element("fields_list", :url => { :action => "order", :id => @fields_list }) %> it creates a sortable and I can move elements up and down, but it is not making any call to the "order" method. I do not see any log activity in the development log nor do I see any errors there. The

Hi, maybe I am using this the wrong way but I have a list as follows <ul id="secondlist"> <li>bla bla</li> <li> bla bla </li> </ul> and then I add dynamically further <li> elements and create a Sortable but the onUpdate only fires for <li> items that have not been created via Javascript. Any clues? <script

I''ve got the following sortable list in one of my views: <ul id="sortable_list" class="sortable_list"> <%= render(:partial => ''section'', :collection => @sections) %> </ul> <div class="new_section" id="new_section"> <%= form_remote_tag(:url => {:action =>

Hi there, I''ve got the following code to generate two sortable elements but whenever someone drags and drops an item, i only want it to return a serialised list of the items in categoryartworks, the unlinkedartworks can be in any order and I don''t care. I can then delete those artworks that were in category artworks but aren''t in the serialised list, plus reorder

I''ve been stumbling on the tut at oriontransfer (http://wiki.oriontransfer.co.nz/main/show/SortableTree) I''ve got it working in a one dimensional list and I''ve got the drag and drop working on children, but as can''t get it to save the tree. Here''s my view: <h2>Menu Prototype 2</h2> <%= flash[:notice] %> <ul

Hello all, I''m using Scriptaculous 1.6.1 on a project I''m developing. My generated HTML (generated by PHP) looks something like this: <ul id="admin-list"> <li id="li-13">Singletary, Bob (President/CEO)</li> <li id="li-12">Chatman, Jim (Vice President of Finance/CFO)</li> ... </ul> <script

Having an odd problem with sortable_element. The :url option doesn;t seem to actually work. No AJAX calls are being generated. I can tell because Firebug extension does not show any AJAX requests, and the development.log file does not do anything when droppping the items in new positions. Here is the code I am using for sortable generation: <%= sortable_element

I am attempting to do the sortable_element tutorial from scriptaculous. (http://demo.script.aculo.us/ajax/sortable_elements) Upon viewing the script.aculo.us source, I see this line is generated... <script type="text/javascript">Sortable.create(''list'', {onUpdate:function(){new Ajax.Updater(''list-info'', ''/ajax/order'',

Looks like I have skipped on this, but still - a couple of questions: 1) Why there suddenly is an OrderedHash in ActiveSupport? (this glaring omission from ruby core is present in many apps already) 2) Why it doesn''t match the semantics of Hash respectively? 3) Why it''s #nodoc ? -- Julian ''Julik'' Tarkhanov please send all personal mail to me at julik.nl

I have multiple drag and drop lists. If you sort within one list, you can pass the list back to the server using: <%= sortable_element ''task-list'' << person.id.to_s , :url => { :action => "noop", :id => @user }, ... %> Which causes this to be included in the javascript: onUpdate:function(){new

Looking at the archives, people have asked this before, but I can''t find a proper answer: How do you get sortable_element to return the dragged (moved) element? I know I can compare the list of elements before and after, but I need to know exactly which element was moved. The problem with comparing the list before and after is that if an element is dragged one element forward or
