I know how to make and use sortables, but was wondering if there is any way to make an element span across 2 collums (containment)? - I''m using DIVs as the sortable elements. ex. col 1 col 2 1111 2222 3333 4444 555555555 6666 7777 8888 9999 I can do it by only using one colum by setting the cotaining div to 500px and then making the sortable divs have float: left. If the divs are less than 250px they sit beside each other and if they are over 250 they take up their own line. The problem with this method is that when a large div moves above others, it "re-sorts" the entire remaining divs. I''d like each colum to function seprately, meaning the remaining elements are moved down in their respective colum. examples: using 1 colum 1111 2222 3333 4444 555555555 6666 7777 8888 9999 with 6 moved up one, it becomes : 1111 2222 3333 4444 6666 555555555 7777 8888 9999 but if I want to get it to look like this: 1111 2222 3333 4444 6666 7777 555555555 8888 9999 any thoughts?
