Rails spinoffs - Mar 2007 - Using Sortable - getting error: this.observer is not a function

This is my first time using scriptaculous and prototype and i followed
instructions on a website on my first try. It was successful. Now,
I''ve tried to get this to work in my application environment, and the
script will pick-up, drag and move items but when I go to drop them, I
get this error:

this.observer is not a function

Details: in file: dragdrop.js (line 574)

onEnd()dragdrop.js (line 574)
notify(Object element=div#item_list)dragdrop.js (line 209)
(no name)(Object element=div#item_list)prototype.js (line 328)
_each(function())prototype.js (line 541)
each(function())prototype.js (line 326)
notify("onEnd", Object element=div#item_12.item
handle=div#item_12.item, mouseup clientX=0, clientY=0)dragdrop.js
(line 208)
finishDrag(mouseup clientX=0, clientY=0, true)dragdrop.js (line 406)
endDrag(mouseup clientX=0, clientY=0)dragdrop.js (line 438)
endDrag(mouseup clientX=0, clientY=0)dragdrop.js (line 187)
bindAsEventListener(mouseup clientX=0, clientY=0)prototype.js (line
78)
[Break on this error] this.observer(this.element)

If i right click, then left click, the item will drop in the spot your
cursor is over, but my onUpdate function does not occur.

Also, in my first test, i used: Constraint: vertical, however in my
live version, i do not want contraint. The items can be sorted in any
manner, kind of like ->

Any idea what could be causing this?

I don''t know what I did, but basically started over from scratch and I
no longer get this error. Must''ve been an issue of the server not
including the file or something...
