Hello all, I have 2 sortables that the user should be able to drag and drop elements between. I want an event to fire when an element is dropped and I want to capture the id of the container (droppable) and id of the dropped item (draggable). However I also want it to be sortable (hence needing to use a Sortable vs. Draggable/Droppables). The onDrop event on Droppable looked like a good candidate. I added it as a Prototype.emptyFunction to the options hash and passed on the definition through the rails method: sortable_element("container_1", ..., :onDrop => "function(drag, drop, event) { alert(drop.id); }", ...); I do this for both containers, obviously setting the ''containment'' option among other things. I add onDrop as one of the options_for_droppable as well as options_for_tree: var options_for_droppable = { ... onDrop: options.onDrop } In summary, it seems to work, *except* that it only works some of the time. Some elements when dropped to not fire off the onDrop event while other elements will always fire it off. Anyone know what the deal is? I have tried getting rid of the sortable and just using Droppables to test the onDrop firing there and it seems to work without problems. It seems that the problem occurs when the sortable tries to create droppables internally. Apologies for the long message, just trying to be as specific and clear as possible. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.
