similar to: Drag and Drop Sortable Tree

Just finished our first proper rails app and I''m trying to add some AJAX effects for the first time. I''ve got Rails Recipes and the Rails Cookbook, none of their examples seem to be a good fit with what I''m trying to achieve. Which is... I have 2 lists of users. One for assigned users, one for unassigned users. I want to be able to drag users between the lists to

Hi all, When using sortable lists, a click anywhere in a <li> element will trigger the "sort_by_dragging" mode, and have the clicked element follow the mouse. The active area is the entire <li> element. Is there a way to either : - limit the active/triggering "area" to a part of the <li> element (like a luggage handle) or - prevent a part of the

I have a <ul> that contains a number of list items, and I''m using the sortable_element helper to reorder then via drag-and-drop. This works great, however, when I insert a new <li> into the <ul> with Ajax, the sortable_element doesn''t know about it. Is there a way to refresh this collection? Thanks for any help. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I need an ordered (sortable tree) and I just was thinking if somehting like this is possible: class Item< ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_tree :order => "position" acts_as_list :scope => ''parent_id = #{self.id}'' end For my understanding mixing of two acts_as should be p?ssible, at least in this case, right? Unfortunatly the :scope is not working, I am not

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">

Folks, It has been a whole day spent on this but I still can''t get my mind around the most probably very stupid/basic mistake here... First, the code I use: <h3>List A</h3> <ul id="lista" > <li id="item1"> Item 1</li> <li id="item2"> Item 2</li> <li id="item3"> Item 3</li> </ul>

I was experimenting with using some interesting CSS styles with <dl> <dt> and <dd> elements. But then I needed to be able to make this list a sortable_element in Rails, and it did not work. I had to convert it all to <ul> and <li>. Is there a reason why sorting can''t work within definition lists? I searched the list archive and found the

I''m having some difficulty adding drag-and-drop sorting to my application. I''m hoping that someone can help me figure out what I''m doing wrong: #view <table> ... <tbody id="item-list-body"> <tr id="view-item-<%= item.id %>"....</tr> </tbody> ... <%= sortable_element(''item-list-body'',

I''ve been stumbling on the tut at oriontransfer (http://wiki.oriontransfer.co.nz/main/show/SortableTree) I''ve got it working in a one dimensional list and I''ve got the drag and drop working on children, but as can''t get it to save the tree. Here''s my view: <h2>Menu Prototype 2</h2> <%= flash[:notice] %> <ul

When a ''draggable'' element is made ''sortable'', it no longer follows the mouse horizontally when you drag it. Is there a solution/workaround? TIA Alain

I have a working sortable_list that is added to by AJAX. The problem is that when a new item is added, it''s not sortable. I found a post on scriptaculous using behaviour.js to refresh the DOM when an item is added, but I can''t figure out how to do it with Rails. To test the behaviour method, I used this: var myrules={ ''div#steps ul'' :

I would love to get some feedback and test a patch to rev. 4380. First, the money shot - check out this demo of a scriptaculous DataGrid: http://development.finetooth.com/?p=13 I''m using the <tr> as a sortable with the <th>''s as the sortable elements.

I am attempting to do the sortable_element tutorial from scriptaculous. (http://demo.script.aculo.us/ajax/sortable_elements) Upon viewing the script.aculo.us source, I see this line is generated... <script type="text/javascript">Sortable.create(''list'', {onUpdate:function(){new Ajax.Updater(''list-info'', ''/ajax/order'',

Hi, I am creating a sortable list using this code: <%= sortable_element("fields_list", :url => { :action => "order", :id => @fields_list }) %> it creates a sortable and I can move elements up and down, but it is not making any call to the "order" method. I do not see any log activity in the development log nor do I see any errors there. The

Hi Everyone, I posted this last month and unfortunately, I didn''t recieve any replies. Maybe this time I''ll have better luck. I originally had my sortable element list working properly like so: <ul id="sortable_list"> <% @items.each do |item| %> <li id="item_<%= item.id %>"><%= image_tag "dragme.gif"

Hi, I''ve been playing with sortable, the demos on script.aculo.us and reading the javascript. I hope I''m not just missing the documentation somewhere but I can''t find it. I want to do something like Sortable for the admin side of an open source ecommerce project I''m working on [1]. I''m relatively new to DHTML but understand the basic ideas. If someone

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
