Hi, In the last few days I''ve been working a lot on rewriting the dragdrop.js code. I''ve made changes for what I think is stronger object-oriented design and made more parallels between how Droppbables and Draggables are coded and instantiated. I have multiple selection and dragging of draggables working and droppables can accept multiple draggables in one drop. There are some other little changes too. The backwards compatiable rewrite is not quite ready for release yet. I have to clean up some details and then make sure that Sortables is still working. I think soon I''ll have it all working so that I can easily build something like Finder on my Mac. A very cool drag-drop admin interface for store.rb project. Of course I''d like to make all these changes available to the Rails world. I''ve tried twice this week to email Thomas Fuchs at thomas@fesch.at but I''ve had no response. Is that the correct address to send the new dragdrop.js? Thanks, Peter

Hi Peter, I would be very interested in what you are working on. Could you send me a copy of your code? Do you have a demo running ?

However I was almost finished the rewrite to the scriptaculous dragdrop library. It takes care of many tickets and other improvements. It is still buggy but if someone wants to continue my work they can have the code I produced. The frustration came from the buggy positioning which I think came from outside the dragdrop script. I will email you a demo of the buggy code that I sent to another person. Peter
