similar to: sortable or drag/drop for tables

I''ve gone through Chad Fowler''s recipe for creating a drag and drop sortable list, and have been trying to extend this to a sortable tree. Has anyone come up with or seen code which allows drag and drop sorting (altering the position and parent_id variables of the relevant objects) but for data in a nested tree rather than a list form? - Justin

I''ve got a "Sortable" list that is sorting just fine. But in the list items, there is a link. If you mousedown on the link, drag it to a new location and mouseup, the list gets reordered appropriately, but then the link is followed (you did - after all - click it). Is there a way to either stop the mouseup/click event before activating the link after you''ve dragged

No rocket science on the surface, but there is something slightly clever happening here - note that the green scriptaculous draggables take on a different CSS class or something when they''re moved over the right hand droppable. This warrants a look under the hood ... --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google

I ran into this issue too. My solution was to add an "onUpdate" function to the sortable that tests the container to see if it''s got any children or not: function is_empty(container) { if ($(container).hasChildNodes()) { Element.removeClassName($(container),''empty''); } else if (!$(container).hasChildNodes()) {

Can''t seem to get the onUpdate to work in for a sortable list. I am following the documentation and the included functional tests but nothing is firing for me. Any idea why? Sortable.create(''list1'', { tree:true , onUpdate:function(sortable){ alert(''onUpdate'') } , handle: ''handle'' , scroll:window ,

I have two sortable lists that you can drag and drop to and from. Each object in the lists have a position field in the object''s table. I want to be able to update the position in the database automagically once a user has sorted the list. I can drag and drop just fine but I am not able to store the new positions in the database. I am trying to use Ajax.request in the onUpdate callback

I have an HTML table I am trying to "retro-fit" with a sortable such that a cell in one column/row and be moved to another. What I have tried in tyerms of formatting looks akin to: <div id="schedule"> <table> <tr> <td><div id="one">Some Text</div></td> <td><div

Hi all.

How to do it? which function in Sortable class i have to overrider or modify? i try to modife onhover method in sortable and put a ajaxRequest call before methods dropon.parentNode.insertBefore

Using Rails to generate a sortable list, I get the draggable/sortable page elements, but Ajax never fires back the post-sorted list. (I''ve checked with IE & Firefox, the "save this order to the DB" controller hasn''t been called.) The View: <p>Drag to sort.<span id="sort_info"></span></p> <ul id="sort1">

hi i got a problem with a Sortable.create. i got an array containing the ID of the elements i want to make an sortable of, that is no problem, but i want to be able to drag between the sortables and that where my problem is. i dont know how to assign an array to containment: until now the script looks like this: for (i=0;i<id_gruppe.length;i++) { Sortable.create(id_gruppe[i]

I am trying to create a screen like Google''s personalized home pages or start.com, i.e., with draggable sections, with the extra feature that the child items under the parent headings could be dragged and dropped from one parent heading to another. I have set up nested droppable sortables (dropOnEmpty=true) but the behavior is very inconsistent, i.e, parents do not become droppable

Hi there, I''m started to use scriptaculous yesterday and it''s really great. Hovever, there is one problem that I cannot solve: I have a page with a sortable list and a droppable "trash can". I would like to drag and drop items between the list and the trash can, but it don''t work. Which options should I set to make it works correctly? Thanks!

We are creating a simple widget portal for our site and trying to use Sortables. Each of our widgets is an iframe. But when you try to drag an element containing an iframe the Sortables api causes the iframe to reload at each possible drop point. This causes the ui to shutter and become unusable. I have narrowed the issue down the onEmptyHover where dropon.insertBefore is called. Is there a

Hello, I''m facing a strange problem with a long list of Sortable items in a container that has an overflow:auto. If I drag an item from the top to the bottom, the container div is scrolling, but there is a difference between the position of the dragged element and the mouse pointer. An example is better that a thousand words. Try to drag the first item at the bottom of the

Hi, I''m having strange problem with Sortable. I''m trying to do something like google homepage, netvibes and others with 3 sortable lists, just to prouve someone it''s really easy with scriptaculous. But maybe it''s not so easy :) I''ve attached what I did, the code looks good to me but when I drag the upper left widget to another column, the widget under

Hey folks, On the Drag and Drop demo page in the Sortable Lists Demo section: http://script.aculo.us/drag-and-drop If you drag all of the items from the first list into the second list, it appears that you cannot drag a list item back into the first (now empty) list. Is there a way to allow a Sortable that is empty of draggable items to accept dropped items? Danilo

Hi everybody, Could somebody have a look at a little sortable example at http://www.weisshuhn.de/diagnose/sortable.html It implements two Sortables and a Draggable. You can drag elements from the "source" Sortable to the main Sortable, sort them (surprise) and drag them to a trash. Whenever you drag from the "source", a new element is created (by cloning an invisible

I have a page that I have been tasked with adding sortable support to, and the div elements that are being dragged have a <a href> in them with an onClick handler that opens a new window with a preview. Is there a way to keep that onCLick from firing when a sortable is dropped? Sam D _______________________________________________ Rails-spinoffs mailing list

I have a need to have two sortable lists with the ability to cross drop items between the list. I am using the script.aculo.us<http://script.aculo.us>library. All is well until I empty one of the lists completely out, at which time I cannot drop anything in to the empty list. I have used CSS to set the height of the <UL> so I have a large target to drop on. In my efforts to make it
