I have no problems getting Sortables to work on content written into the html files but it never seems to work if the list is added via javascript. Is there something I''m doing wrong? Here are the pertinent parts of my code: html portion: <div id="contents"></div> javascript portion: document.getElementById("contents").innerHTML=''<ul id="lists"><li>blah</li></ul>'' + ''<script type="text/javascript">'' + '' Sortable.create(''lists'',{ghosting:true})'' + ''</script>''; The list shows up but it''s not draggable. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.

Probably the script tag is not getting executed. As you''re in JavaScript anyway try something like this: document.getElementById("contents").innerHTML=''<ul id="lists"><li>blah</li></ul>''; Sortable.create(''lists'',{ghosting:true}); or a Prototype way $("contents").update(''<ul id="lists"><li>blah</li></ul>''); Sortable.create(''lists'',{ghosting:true}); --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.

> document.getElementById("contents").innerHTML=''<ul > id="lists"><li>blah</li></ul>''; > Sortable.create(''lists'',{ghosting:true});in hindsight, that was an incredibly obvious solution. can''t believe I missed that. ^^;; thanks! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.
