[Rails-spinoffs] scriptaculous: Draggable and table rows
I''m trying to add drag/drop for moving rows between two tables, and not
having much luck... I can get images to be drag-able OK so I know all
the script files are in the right place ;-) But no joy with table rows.
Is this a Draggable and/or Javascript/HTML limitation?
Here''s what I''m trying:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="/js/prototype.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="/js/scriptaculous/effects.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="/js/scriptaculous/dragdrop.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<table cellpadding="3" cellspacing="10">
<tr id="row1">
<td>1</td><td>
<img alt="img" id="item1"
src="/img1.png" />
<script type="text/javascript">new
Draggable(''item1'',
{revert:true})</script>
</td>
</tr>
<tr id="row2">
<td>2</td><td>
<img alt="img" id="item2"
src="/img1.png" />
</td>
</tr>
<script type="text/javascript">new
Draggable(''row2'',
{revert:true})</script>
</table>
</body>
</html>
I can drag the image out of row one, but can''t drag the table row at
all (dragging greys it out,
but it stays in place.) I''m using 1.1beta1 w/ the prototype 1.4.0_pre2
distribution from scriptaculous.
Any hints appreciated!

That''s a browser limitation. You can''t use drag/drop or sortables with table rows. Personally, in this situation, i use DIV elements containing fixed- width floating SPANs as columns.

[Rails-spinoffs] scriptaculous: Draggable and table rows
I was afraid you''d say that... seems a shame to ditch tables that actually are semantically relevant just to get some UI goodness :-) I guess an alternative would be to provide a drag-able ''handle'' image in each table row, though. I''ll have to see if I can ''fake'' a row-width border around the image during dragging! L. On 24-Aug-05, at 12:32 PM, Thomas Fuchs wrote:> That''s a browser limitation.

Hm, I just tried the same thing with Rico and was able to get dragable table rows no problem. What''s the limitation that prevents Scriptaculous supporting this? L.

Can you provide a working example that supports this on Firefox, IE and Safari...?
