I''ve been building a scheduling page with lots of sortables. There''s a sortable list on the left with a bunch of names, then a grid (table) with sortable td''s (20~30 rows ''shifts'' x 7 cols ''dates'') on the right. I want to drag people from the list on to a position in the grid, usually one person per cell (shift x date), but sometimes more than one, in which case the cell should be sortable. I am an issue with slow load and drag times which have been discussed somewhat before, but not in this specific scenario. "The load delay can be mitigated by doing some just-in-time declaration: create the sortable (or individual Draggables) on mouseover." @TAG True, but this only works for the source sortable, or when I move the mouse quick enough that a mouseover registered on the target sortable before the dragged element under the mouse catches up. PM has described this in his blog... "Since the dragged element is always under the cursor, the browser does not detect a "mouseover" event when the cursor and dragged element enters a target element." (http://peter.michaux.ca/article/15, http://peter.michaux.ca/article/51) I''m not convinced that I should use this library in lieu of sortables, since I would have to abandon the sort (which is an essential feature) or rewrite it in this new context. Any suggestions on how to use even a ''looping recipe'' to ''lazy'' create target sortables on the fly? Any other suggestions for improving performance? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.
