I apologize if these questions are not relevant to Scriptaculous. I just want to get a general idea if I can acomplish some or all of these things with the framework, and then what (if any) I''ll need to do outside just using javascript. For now, I have 2 column layout. On the right I want a form palette where form elements can be dragged to the left column. I have a form inside the

Hi All, I am trying to develop a dynamic form creator application, whereby we can drag objects from a "palette" and drop them onto a "form" to build the design of our form. To achieve this, when I have dragged the object, and dropped it onto the "form" area, I want to get the position of where the object was dropped. I have a droppable area:

Hello, I''m making my first steps with prototype and scriptaculous. I''m playing around with drag and drop. What I try to do: I have some Draggables and some Droppables. You can drag each Draggables to each Droppables. When I drop a Draggables I want to center the Draggables inside the Droppable. And here I get my first problems:-( I use this code: Droppables.add(

Here''s the deal. I''m making an ajax-based chess game. It''s done but there''s something I''d like changed. Right now, to move pieces, you click on the piece you want and you click where you want the piece to go. People expect that, but they also expect the ability to simply drag and drop the piece. So I''ve been using the draggables and droppables,

Hi All, I''m trying to drag a copy of a string from a list into a text field so that the original string stays in the list. I''m able to drag the item and set the value of the text field onDrop. But the original text leaves the list & with revert set to true it flies back to it''s original position in the list. We''re trying to avoid the flying text. What

Hey all, First, I just want to say thanks to all of you who read, and email here frequently. So "Thanks". Second, I have a little pet project. This one has not timelines, and is mainly meant for my own personal growth and javascript goodness. It is a drag and drop game, and it may not be 100% possible to do everything I want with it. But that has not stopped me from

Hi there, i need to drag an draggable element to an child div node inside an another div container, but i create the child node dynamicly with ids like '' div_ + i '' where ''i'' is a incremental variable, thats the problem because i need get the id of this child nodes to manipulate it, somebody knows how if i drag the element to that child node i can get the id of

Hi, What I need to know is how to change revert:true to revert:false from a draggable after I drop it on a droppable so it doesn''t return to its original place. Something like: [CODE] <!-- Draggable image --> <img alt="Product" id="item" src="icon.png"> <script type="text/javascript"> new

i know someone just recently asked about queueing ajax requests, my question is similar in the regards that i don''t want my application to send multiple requests. i have 2 sortabbles lists left, and right. when i move an item from left to the right the onUpdate callback will send 2 ajax requests. one for each sortables. however. i want it to serialize and send back the results from

hi I''m making a chess board app in Rails using the scriptaculous drag and drop stuff. A couple of questions, I am having trouble putting the chess pieces in the correct place - simply it seems that when i make somethign draggable it changes its positioning to relative - not so good for putting pieces on a board. Why is this ? Also i can''t see an OnDrop callback in the API

I am not sure how many of you are using draggables/droppables but I thought I would do some experimentation and try and learn how to use them on my own. Well, I have draggables, and I have droppables. I do have one question for now. The droppable onDrop event seems to pass in 2 objects, the dropped object, and the container the object was dropped on. My question is this, can I figure

Hello all, I want to extend a draggable object so it has one more attribute (type attribute, so I can distinguish different draggable types). Can anyone tell me how to do it? I''ve search throught the examples (like http://wiki.script.aculo.us/scriptaculous/show/ExtendClass) but I can''t seem to understand what I should do. Thanks for you help, H

I have a droppable and draggable implementation. works pretty much well except when my droppables are on a scrollbar (created via overflow:auto) since my droppables are on a list. seems that the droppables aren''t working well with scrollbars and overflow. please help! thanks! _______________________________________________ Rails-spinoffs mailing list

If you want the whole list draggable as one entity, you make one draggable. If you want each item draggable on their own, you need to make each one a new draggable. -----Original Message----- From: rails-spinoffs-bounces-1W37MKcQCpIf0INCOvqR/iCwEArCW2h5@public.gmane.org [mailto:rails-spinoffs-bounces-1W37MKcQCpIf0INCOvqR/iCwEArCW2h5@public.gmane.org] On Behalf Of

Hey Guys, I''m having trouble with getting my draggables to go over the top of other items on my page. For instance, if I drag an icon from ''lower'' in the page to a ''higher'' point then it slides underneath it visually. I have set the z-index to a very high number and that doesn''t seem to have any effect. Are there other things I need to

Cheers, I have some elements inside a div with overflow:auto. When I trie to drag them outside of the div, the div starts to scroll. Is there a way to stop this behaviour for drag and drop? I thought of maybe using callback to disable the overflow and restoring it againg after the drop. Did someone implemented something like this? Thanks, Jonathan -- Jonathan Weiss

Hi! is it possible to make a drag dependent on a KeyPress event? I couldn''t find any information on that on the script.aculo.us website. My scenario is the following: I have a tree with several nodes (like windows explorer). Right now i use Drag & Drop to move a node below a new parent. Now i want to implement a copy mechanism which allows the user to copy a node through Drag

I am quite disappointed in the drag ''n'' drop support in Mozilla Firefox. What am trying to achieve is dragging an element from one IFRAME/FRAME into another IFRAME/FRAME. But upon dropping the element, I do not want the target IFRAME/FRAME to open/load it. I want it simply to handle the event, such as parsing the element/data dropped. Such uses as dropping an element into a

Hi, I have implemented the drag and drop feature to move around some divs, but I have a small side effect i am trying to clear: When the draggable div contains links, and if the user grab the div on the link, the drag is done but the link is also visited, leading to unwanted issues. What I''ve tried to do is to look for all ''a'' tags in the draggable elements in order

Hi ! I have the following: <li id="photo_<%= @photo.id %>" class="photo"> <%= link_to(image_tag(url_for_file_column(:photo, :picture)), {:action => ''photo'', :id => @photo}, {:title => @photo.description}) %> </li> <script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript"><!--
