Rails spinoffs - Feb 2006 - declaring draggable object that holds it position

Hi i posted this question earlier on how to create a droppable div(New to
Ajax), and i have just realised that my code does work, however the function
doesn''t work the way I expected it to, I would like my draggable to
remain
where it was dropped, currently I have a draggable div and a droppable div.
I would like to try create a puzzle type game which has a set amount of
droppables and an equal amount of draggables, which would make up a 100
piece board. Could anyone who has done something like this please offer me
some advice, I would really appreciate it. Scriptaculous, without Ruby,
I''m
using PHP files. thanks

could you also please tell me how i can post to the thread i started and
find it again. never used a mailing list before

I think what you are looking for is Sortables, not draggables.

Actually, sorry to interrupt, Mandy... but I think he''s looking for
something like on the Rico demo page, where the draggable objects get
placed inside the droppables...

 

http://openrico.org/rico/demos.page?demo=rico_drag_and_drop_simple

 

To the original poster, I''ve tried Rico... it''s slow. But if
that''s what
you need, Rico is also based on prototype (and to some extent,
scriptaculous I believe)... but it supports out of the box what you are
trying to achieve.
