similar to: Sortable.serialize() question

I want to build a sortable list that updates the server when the item is dropped into its new position. How to create a sortable list is clear, but I''m looking for an example of how to integrate this with the server side. Are there any examples or tutorials around? I''m working in a java environment. Thanks, Jamie

Near the end of the Sortable.serialize() method, there is a split command that splits on an underscore. What is the convention it''s following here and is it documented somewhere? Thanks, Jamie serialize: function(element) { element = $(element); var sortableOptions = this.options(element); var options = Object.extend({ tag: sortableOptions.tag, only:

I''ve got a page I''ve implemented a bunch of observables and sortables. There are around 330 items in the list. The Observables (for hide/show of sublists) don''t seem to impact performance, but the Sortables take a very long time to load when the page is refreshed or submitted--even after accounting for the server-side processing and latency. I''ve

I see what he is saying now. When you assign a click event with the Event.observe it does not allow you to call it with the $(''xxx'').onclick(); command as it''s looking for the onclick tag in the a tag. I''m stumped on a way to get this to work. Jon Whitcraft Web Application Developer Online Services - Indianapolis Motor Speedway (317) 492-8623

Hi, I have some images and I want to be able to drag them into the order I want and have the database updated accordingly. I have an unordered list elsewhere in the application that works well, but for the images I cant get it working. In my controller I have: def updateorder params[:images].each_with_index { |id,idx| ProductImage.update(id, :display_order => idx) } render :text

Hi, I successfully build sortable environment with back-end "update" into a mysql database to store positions. Now I try to close a sortable element and try to update the sortable elements position of the container. What is the best way to achieve that ? An effect.xxxx from scripty to hide the sortable element work fine but I can''t get the list/position of the remaining

I just want to confirm that it''s *not* possible to sort <tr>s in tables.... Jamie

I''m trying to call a click() event on an <a href> that has an Observable registered for it. Something like: <a href="#" id="toggle_1929">show</a> ... Event.observe("toggle_1929", ''click'', function(event){ Element.toggle ("group_1929"); return false; }); ... $("toggle_1929").click(); //this throws

I''m looking for onSuccess: in Ajax.InPlaceEditor, but it doesn''t appear to exist. onComplete isn''t what I need because I only want my callback on success. Is there a way to do this? Thanks, Jamie

What''s the current status of Markaby? I''ve played with it a bit and love it and am considering using it for a large project I''m starting. If you''ve used it, I''d love to hear your comments! Jamie

Hi I have a simple question. Default format in sortable.create is: /^[^_\-](?:[A-Za-z0-9\-\_]*)[_](.*)$/ and sortable.serialize returns "key[]=value&key[]=value&key[]=value... " What format should I use in sortable.create, if i want to have something like that (after serialize): "value,value,value" Thanks, Sever --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~

I''ve got some sorting working now, but when the page loads and when I drag, I keep getting this error: "Error: item.id has no properties" My <ul> and <li> elements all have ids. Do child elements all need ids? Here''s the code from dragdrop.js where the error is being thrown ( a few lines from the bottom of the file, line 501--HEAD version) serialize:

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">

I''ve found that when I revert this change, toggle works again. Otherwise, it''s broken (Mac OS Tiger, Safari and Firefox): - element.style.display = - (element.style.display == ''none'' ? '''' : ''none''); + Element[Element.visible(element) ? ''show'' : ''hide''](element); I looked

Hi there! My first post to this list, so first of all many thanks for the amazing Scriptaculous library. I''m currently using it for some nice Ajax effects in Apache Cocoon (http://cocoon.apache.org/). I''m currently struggling with Sortable, which I would like to adapt as the conventions used in Cocoon are different from those currently used. Basically, I would like to send

I''ve been stuck on this particular problem for quite some time now. If I don''t explain it well enough I''d be happy to explain more. I have a group of draggables and a droppable object. I''ve created a function for the Droppable.onDrop event so when I drop one of these items I check (via an array) to see if it has already been added to the droppable. If it

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

Hi all, Iäve built some functionality in a CMS where you can drag and drop small elements on the page between 2+ panes/containers/divs. Whenever a drag-drop event has occurred (onUpdate) I make a Ajax.Request to save the new layout in the CMS. The code is as follows: in an onload-function: var a = ["subcontent", "main"]; for (var i=0; id=a[i]; i++) { if ($(id)) {

At least, I think it is a bug. When I use it on a ul that has 8 li, it returns me 9 results. I send it to PHP, and it returns me 9 results too. It''s on the 1.5pre_2 Thanks (note : the bug ''could'' be me, but i''m quite unsure) ???????????????????????? http://www.samueldr.com http://www.hostingquebec.ca

Hi, I''ve been working on a sortable tree modification. You can get what I have done so far here: http:// www.oriontransfer.co.nz/Sortable+List.zip Firstly, serialize needs work to support a tree structure. Secondly, I have not tested if it still works with lists property (I''m sure it would work fine, but I haven''t tested it). Finally, I need to merge this code
