I have two sortable list that a user can drag and drop to and from. I want to store the new order in the database. What I am having problems with is I am using the onUpdate callback function to make an Ajax request to my action that stores the new order. I am unsure if I should put the onUpdate call in both of the sortable.create functions. If I put the callback in the first sortable, I can drag and drop to and from and the order is stored correctly, I can sort the sortable with the callback but I can not sort the sortable without the callback. Sortable.create("left", {dropOnEmpty:true,containment:["left","right"],constraint:false, onUpdate:updateOrder}); Sortable.create("right", {dropOnEmpty:true,containment: ["left","right"],constraint:false}); If I put the callback in the second sortable nothing works. Sortable.create("left", {dropOnEmpty:true,containment: ["left","right"],constraint:false}); Sortable.create("right", {dropOnEmpty:true,containment:["left","right"],constraint:false, onUpdate:updateOrder}); If I put the callback in the both sortables then the ordering does not get saved properly. Sortable.create("left", {dropOnEmpty:true,containment:["left","right"],constraint:false, onUpdate:updateOrder}); Sortable.create("right", {dropOnEmpty:true,containment:["left","right"],constraint:false, onUpdate:updateOrder}); function updateOrder(){ var left_list = Sortable.serialize(''left''); var right_list = Sortable.serialize(''right''); var url = ''order_modules''; var params = left_list + ''&'' + right_list; new Ajax.Request(url, { method: ''post'', parameters: params}); } So should the callback go in both sortables and my saving algorithm is wrong or should the callback only go in one of the sortables? Or ??? Thanks, K --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.
