Hello, Either we need to fix the documentation for draggables: handle (none) Sets whether the element should only be draggable by an embedded handle. The value is a string referencing a CSS class. The first child/grandchild/etc. element found within the element that has this CSS class will be used as the handle. Or update the code: this.handle = options.handle ? $(options.handle) : this.element; As this code is expecting the actual Element object. (which is what Sortable sends) I can send in a patch depending on which way you want to go with this. . . Jesse
