Hello, I am not sure how many people are using the shiny new tree version of dragdrop.js - well it seems that someone arbitrarily changed part of my implementation and has broken the functionality with rails: 864 serialize: function(element) { 865 element = $(element); 866 var options = Object.extend(Sortable.options(element), arguments[1] || {}); 867 var name =

Hi, I''ve just been having a look at the scriptaculous drag-n-drop library, which looks exceedingly good. I''m running across a show-stopper here, though - something that''s cropping up in both the online demos and my own test scripts. If I set up two lists so that I can drag items between them, then if either list becomes empty, I can''t drag elements back into

I have a Sortable that''s working like a charm, but now I would like to be able to drop objects from that Sortable onto a Droppable that''s not part of my Sortable. I just did a small test page where it didn''t work, so my first question has to be "is this supposed to work?", before I dig too deep into it. "accept" for the droppable is set to the

Hi Thomas, Here''s a fix for the problem that I raised this morning, turned out to be fairly simple in the end (after many false starts and thrashing about - thank goodness for Venkman!) First, in Sortable.create(), I register the parent element (the UL tag or whatever), and add an extra property to it to mark it as the parent of the list in question: for (var i = 0; i <

Hi all, In the following code, it doesn''t look like the onUpdate() event is firing. Am I doing something wrong? <ul id="testSort"> <li id="item1">item 1</li> <li id="item2">item 2</li> <li id="item3">item 3</li> <li id="item4">item 4</li> <li id="item5">item

Hi, I''ve been confused about the purpose of _marker in dragdrop.js for quite a while. It doesn''t really look like it does anything with ghosting on or off. I removed the mark method and didn''t discover any problems. Is all the mark business a relic from some past idea? Thanks, Peter

Hi all. I think the following code in dragdrop.js fire: function(event, element) { if(!this.last_active) return; Position.prepare(); if (this.isAffected(Event.pointerX(event), Event.pointerY(event), element, this.last_active)) if (this.last_active.onDrop) this.last_active.onDrop(element, this.last_active); } should be changed to fire: function(event,

To have a look at the new "ghosting" option in dragdrop.js, get yourself the latest SVN trunk and play around with the dragdrop_functional_4.html and sortable_function_ghosting.html test files. Hope you like it. Some things are broken, and it''s not well tested, *hint*, but it''s cool stuff. :) Thanks to xal for suggesting this. Thomas

I need to present the user with a collection of players and one to many teams. The user can drag a player to a team or from one team to another. I started out using plain drag-drop, but was having trouble updating both the from list and the to list. E.g. if a player goes from team1 to team2 I need to update both of those divs. I can do the team2 div easy enough, but the player record still

Hi, I want to do some custom logic on items being dragged and dropped - I need an event callback that has a reference to both the element being dropped (the LI), and the target element that it''s being dropped onto (the UL). I''ve found the Sortables.create option for creating an onUpdate and onChange handler, and done the following: function selectItem(target){

Hi everybody- First time poster, please be gentle. I have written a little rails app where you can create divs and move them around via Thomas'' wonderful dragdrop.js. I would like to be able to fire an AJAX event to update the top and left of the dragged object upon release. I see many AJAX link_to_remote and observe_field. What is the proper way to observe that the position (not

Hi folks, I''m in the process of updating a mostly-server-side web app to 21st century functionality, using the prototype.js etc packages. I''m mostly a server-side PHP guy, so please pardon the level of ignorance about Javascript. I''m having some strange problems, and right now, I''m trying to localize whether the problems are generic browser-things or whether

Sorry if this sounds cynical, ( i do love script.aculo.us scripts ) , but I am wondering if people know of some good real world examples of uses of drag n drop and sortable lists. such a cute script will likely be *ab*used as much as it is used. obviously the point here is to use script.aculo.us to improve the user interface rather than just have some k00l eFX. e.g. the drag n drop instantly

Hi, 1. I have 2 panes, each having approximately 45-50 slides, all the slide images are 110x82 pixels in size, enclosed in their respective div''s. 2. These divs are further enclosed in a parent div, which is defined as a Sortable on page load. 3. There is a destination div on the RHS also. Sortable.create("div_leftDiv", {ghosting:true, revert: true, dropOnEmpty:true,

Hello, Well, i need to limit the number of elements in a sortable. I new to scriptaculo but i have lots of experiencie with javascript. Since limit the number of elements is not supported by Sortable i would like to implement, i already took a look at the Sortable class in dragdrop.js and it looks like that onHover and onEmptyHover deal with the update of the UI, however I''m not unable

Hi, I''ve been working on new ideas for a JavaScript drag and drop library. I haven''t found a drag and drop library flexible enough for my needs and I think I have come up with something that is generally worthwhile. I use the DOM and Event utilities from Yahoo! UI and no Prototype.js. I''m interested in any ideas or suggestions people might have. Blog

Hi all I am creating sortable list with the builder. Now i want these sortables to be a sortable aswell. So i wrap a div around them and run sortable create on the main-container. I have it like so (simplified): var myLists = new Array(); // start a empty array for push var mainDiv = ''main''; // some already present div to carry all stuff. function newList() { var sortlist

I have two sortable lists, one after the other. I can drag from the first to the second but not from the second to the first. The behavior is consistent if n > 2. For example, I can drag from 1 to 2, 3 or 4 from 2 to 3 or 4 and from 3 to 4, but not in the reverse order: I can''t drag from the 4th list to anything (besides itself). From the third list I can drag only to itself and 4.

Hi, I''ve been doing a lot of rewriting of dragdrop.js. I''ve covered at least eight open tickets, made multiple selection of draggables, droppables can accept multiple items at a time, added 21 consistently-named callbacks and have reorganized the code. I''m working on adding more things to Sortable now. I''m no JavaScript expert, this is my first project, and I

Hi all: I''m using sortable (very cool stuff!) on a series of divs with an onUpdate callback. Everything appears to work alright until I try to pass a parameter to my callback function like this: Sortable.create( ''page_33'', { tag: ''div'', onUpdate: updateOrder(''page_33'') } ); When I pass that parameter to the
