similar to: How to drag & drop within a DIV?

Hi, I''m just trying out the possibilities of script.aculo.us / prototype having two problems... I have a draggable element with revert:false-property and two dropzones. (The draggables are in a <td> and the dropzones are <div>s if that is important.) 1. I want the draggable element to snap back to its original position when it gets dropped anywhere out of a dropzone. 2.

I am trying to create a screen like Google''s personalized home pages or start.com, i.e., with draggable sections, with the extra feature that the child items under the parent headings could be dragged and dropped from one parent heading to another. I have set up nested droppable sortables (dropOnEmpty=true) but the behavior is very inconsistent, i.e, parents do not become droppable

Hey gang, How does STI work with HABTM? For instance...let''s say I have the following models ----- Category < ActiveRecord::Base Item < ActiveRecord::Base Product < Item Deal < Item ----- Each product or deal can have categories. Would I then setup Item with has_and_belongs_to_many :categories, then create a table categories_items ??? Is there a better way to do it?

Tracked down the source of my problem... It seems that Rmagick isn''t properly cropping/resizing GIF or PNG images when uploaded via file_column. I can upload JPG files just fine. Originally I had installed ImageMagick via Debian''s apt-get and built the rmagick gem using "gem install rmagick". This wasn''t working so I uninstalled ImageMagick and tried to

Hey railsers...anyone run into this problem? I''m developing an app which I''m deploying with Capistrano. That being said, I''ve stuck all the file_column goodies in public/system/... During my deployment script I chmod -R that directory and everything in it to make sure www-data (the apache user/group) has access to it. In development mode on my Macbook I can upload

I haven''t cracked the source of file_column just yet - but has anyone worked out a way to snag images via URL instead of a file upload? Optimally I''d like to have my clients be able to upload a file, or enter in a URL to store as file on the system. Any/all help would be cool. -- seth at subimage interactive http://www.subimage.com/sublog/ -------------- next part

Hi all. I have got situation that I made element draggable - and when element is dragged I want to start some action (e.g. shown AJAX indicator, and change one of CSS class in dragging element). What is the best way to achieve this? I search source code of the Draggable and I saw that there is 2 method: Draggable.initDrag and Draggable.endDrag so it looks like in initDrag method i should

I currently run a handfull of sites on a MediaTemple VPS - which is blazing fast and very cheap for what I get. BUT installing rails and mysql v4 was a major pain in my ass, along with other things. I''m considering switching to a Textdrive business hosting plan but wanted to get some feedback from list members first. I pay about $200 a month quarterly for my MediaTemple service.

Hi All, I am trying to develop a dynamic form creator application, whereby we can drag objects from a "palette" and drop them onto a "form" to build the design of our form. To achieve this, when I have dragged the object, and dropped it onto the "form" area, I want to get the position of where the object was dropped. I have a droppable area:

Here''s the deal. I''m making an ajax-based chess game. It''s done but there''s something I''d like changed. Right now, to move pieces, you click on the piece you want and you click where you want the piece to go. People expect that, but they also expect the ability to simply drag and drop the piece. So I''ve been using the draggables and droppables,

So someone finally named server-push through HTTP-keepalive "Comet" It''s also been implemented in a very nice Java/Javascript library called DWR. http://ajaxian.com/archives/dwr-20-reverse-ajax Has there been any discussion by "the core" about adding this to Rails 1.2? :) -- seth at subimage interactive http://www.subimage.com/sublog/ -------------- next part

I''m pinging the list to see if anyone is working on an open-source e-commerce engine based on Rails yet - something like OSCommerice I guess. Anyone? Is there interest out there for such a thing? I have such a product which has been extracted from real world code. It currently runs 3 production rails sites in various shapes and forms, implemented as a rails engine. Basic feature list: -

Hello world... I have an interesting issue that the online docs aren''t helping me with. In my app I have 4 models Item < ActiveRecord Deal < Item Product < Item Category < ActiveRecord Item has_and_belongs_to_many :categories... On each category record I''d like to maintain a product_count and deal_count to increase performance. This doesn''t appear

Cheers, I have some elements inside a div with overflow:auto. When I trie to drag them outside of the div, the div starts to scroll. Is there a way to stop this behaviour for drag and drop? I thought of maybe using callback to disable the overflow and restoring it againg after the drop. Did someone implemented something like this? Thanks, Jonathan -- Jonathan Weiss

You should open up dragdrop.js in the scriptaculous directory and take a look at the interface for Draggables/Draggable. There is an event for dragStart, dragging, and dragEnd (not by those exact names but you should see them)... sorry I can''t offer more help than just pointing you in the right direction... very busy. Good luck, nice start! The information transmitted in this
