Rails spinoffs - Jun 2007 - Drag and Drop clones

First javascript program, I''m looking for draggable functionality
similar to ghosting except I don''t want the source of the drag to
disappear after the drop.  I want to have an image, and be able to
repeatedly drag clones off of that image.  Here''s some code
that''s
almost what I need:

function make_draggable(elem) {
  new Draggable(elem.id, {} );
  elem.onmousedown = create_clone;
}

function create_clone() {
  new_clone = this.cloneNode(true);
  Position.absolutize(this);
  this.parentNode.insertBefore(new_clone, this);
}

document.getElementsByClassName(''draggable_image'').each(make_draggable);

Except that the source of the clones is no longer draggable, and I
don''t want the destination clone to clone further when it''s
dragged.
Any ideas?

Thanks,
Aaron
