Rails spinoffs - Nov 2006 - How do I report bugs?!!! I have a bug I need solved. About draggable movement.

First of all, all my divs are relative.

If I position a draggable div (it is also a droppable at the same time,
and ghosting is turned on), on top of another relative div and then I
click on the top draggable div, the div will automatically place itself
below the other div.

It seems as if the Position.relativize() function is re-relativizing
the element in which it has to move again to get off the div.

Can I use the draggables with position = absolute so I don''t have to
worry about this problem, or how can I solve this problem.

Hey Phillip,

First, before you report any bug, make sure you have a minimalistic
reproduceable case available.  I''m saying this because you report a
"bug" on a very complex page with tons of elements, behaviors, and
draggable/droppable items.  A page, in short, of such a complexity as to
induce quite some entropy.

There is a definite likelihood that there is no bug: it''s just that the
mass of code for your page (3,500 JS lines is way more than should ever
be used, Phillip!) contains a couple sneaky issues.  It may have grown
organically, instead of being designed and architectured thoroughly at
the beginning...  Understand that I am not throwing a rock at you, I''m
just saying: with a UI so complex, a DOM so vast, and so much JS going
on, bugs can happen in *your* code, too.

If you can reproduce this issue in a reasonably minimal manner, then
file a patch with a test case.  Ideally, especially for
Prototype/script.aculo.us issues, provide a patch with unit tests, which
will make your ticket on the fast track for committal.  Tickets are
submitted on the Ruby on Rails Trac:

	http://dev.rubyonrails.org

When you''re ready, create an account and file a new defect-type ticket
with the proper component, severity, etc.

If you can''t reproduce it in a minimal context, we may have to
investigate your code online, and find a way to tinker with it.

Regards,

After looking at it more, it only happens when revert is set to true.
I''ll try to create a small example of what is going on.
