i did some searching through the archives and didn''t really find an answer to my question, so i''m going to just ask it. i have a situation where there are 3 sortable lists. list1, list2, and list3 i need list2 to accept divs from all 3 lists, but list1 and list3 to only accept divs from the list1 and list3 i''ve added two classes to the divs in my sortables: .rail

The "Sortable lists demo" is almost perfect for a project, but once you drag all the items from the first list to the second, you cannot drag back to the first. I need to be able to have several <ul>s that can be dragged back and forth between, even when one is emptied. Possible solutions? 1) create a <li> that is styled as a header, and is unmovable 2) modify the

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

Hello everyone: I''ve been using scriptaculous for very long time and it''s really good. However, I just came across another problem about using sortables in a scrollable div. The basic structure is: <div style="overflow:auto; height=400px"> <div id=''Item1''></div> <div id=''Item2''></div> ....

I have some drag and drop to do that is just a little different from the scriptaculous demos. My application has a shopping cart-like setup, where the user needs to drag an item from the main content area to a particular position in the cart. I don''t want to be able to sort items in the content area. That is, the target is a Sortable list, but the source is not. Problem one was that

Good hello. I'm confused by the 'hoverclass' option that can be passed to Sortable.create It works with Droppables.add but (for me) it doesn't seem to do anything when used with Sortables. (afaik Sortable.create just calls Droppables.add and passes the hoverclass option through- or at least it's supposed to) Not sure if it's broken in the current svn script.aculo.us but

Hello, I wanted to drag elements from one sortable to another - not a problem. the hard thing is that i want to call a JS function to reorder the elements by certain criterias (ranking f.e.). So the two involved sortables are firering two onUpdate event. When I am changing the order of the LI-elements of the first Sortable (by removing them and adding them again), the second onUpdate event will

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

Hey all I have a project that i''m working on where I''m making extensive use of sortables. I''ve noticed that when my sortable item height is approximately less than 30 pixels, when I try to reorder the sortable it jitters between 2 positions and causes a nasty effect. I expect it''s to do with the tolerance percentages and pixels- when you start to get that

I would like to be able to move Sortables among table cells, including empty ones. However, dropOnEmpty does not seem to work inside tables. I can always emulate tables using CSS, but I was just wondering if something in the javascripts is preventing this. Thanks, Shane

here is my test page: http://www.brianpeiris.com/test/temp.html clicking on the buttons labeled "Edit Description", "Edit Announcement", "Add to Schedule" or "Add a Link" draggable windows should appear. if you drag anyone of them over the sortable list of links at the bottom of the page and release the drag, the sortables appear above the windows. Is this a

Hello, I''m implementing sortables in Rails and I can''t seem to get the lovely effect from the Sortable Floats Demo on Thomas'' wonderful site: http://script.aculo.us/drag-and-drop#sortable-floats-demo Simply put, I can''t get the effect whereby you''re dragging the image. When I have a vertical or horizontal constraint on a list, the effect

Hi! I have a reordering feature for one of my models. It''s done with Sortables JS component that sends an Ajax request with a hash of new positions for each item after reordering, with the following action that processes it: def reorder params[:pos].each do |id, pos| @user.activities.find(id).insert_at(pos) end head :ok end I''m using acts_as_list to

Hello, I am new to Scriptaculous, and was recently brought into a project using it to create an email Newsletter builder. The idea is that the user will have lists of elements that he can add to the email page by dragging the element he wants to add from an "available sections" container, to a "loaded sections" container. Dragging from the loaded to available will

Hi, I''m trying to use sortables to sort table rows and move them between different tables (yes, it''s actual tabular data ;). However, either I don''t know how to use the tag property of Sortable.create properly, or it''s only working for li''s. Since it''s probably the first option, could someone post an example of sorting tr tags and move them

Hello All, I''m wondering if it''s possible to nest sortables: <ul id="first"> <li>One</li> <li>Two</li> <li> <ul id="second"> <li>Three</li> </ul> </li> <li>Four</li> </ul> <script> ... create sortables out of

Hi All, I''m using scriptaculous for the first time. I''m creating a CMS where the user can simply drag menu items to change the order. This is all simple enough. My problem comes with nested menus. The sortables are fine within their own menu but not across other new menus. The reason for this is that I''m using AJAX and only create a sub menu when it''s parent

Hello, please take a look at http://test.reasonmaker.com/sort/ where I made some hacks to allow for nested sortables. I need a hierarchical, sortable list, so I hacked away. It generally works quite nicely, but: ( - The code needs my debug stuff and failed attempts removed ) - The code needs to be adapted to also work with vertical sortables. It probably breaks vertical sortables.

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
