similar to: a frightfully newbish question about dragdrop.js

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 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 All, I am currently using script.aculo.us and Autocompleter for a project which I am dealing now. I faced a situation for which I couldnt find any solution and I could not see any reference regarding this issue in the enhancement/bug lists of script.aculo.us either. Autocompleter component is working perfectly, if the information returned from the server does not exceed ~1000 LIs.

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

Heya, I''ve just released script.aculo.us V1.5_pre1. Please give it a try! Important new stuff (since V1.1b1): * Added a main scriptaculous.js file to load in the other libraries transparently. * Fixed a condition where standard a href=xxx links wouldn''t work in autocomplete results. These do now, the onclick event is not cancelled. [thx to Jasper Slits] * Added

hi there first thanks for thoose neeto things :) got a question couse i cant figure it out: i made a supersimple demo for the drag event: http://noomik.net/test/drag.html works so far, but: if i remove the code between line 20 and line 27 (in the drag.html) it won''t work any more and i get an javascript error in the dragdrop.js in line 311 saying drag has no properties. any

I thought the duration parameter was only used with Effect functions, but I could be wrong.

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

I have two fixes in a text file. I created the diff using "diff -u", so I hope you can apply the patch. The file is attached. I never could get my optional ''scroll when the dragged element goes outside the scrolled element'' thing to work. I got it to start scrolling correctly, but then it would start making increasingly big jumps and basically scroll out of control.

I tried to replicate the demo line for line. I even created a DB table, etc. etc. No dice. I''ve spent like 4 hours on this. I''m using rails 1.8.whatever and apache2. Basically latest everything from 2 days ago, using the newest RC in Firefox on Suse. Here is what I get: Error: Element.makePositioned is not a function Source File: http://cart/javascripts/dragdrop.js

I''m looking for a documentation generator for JavaScript code that can handle the coding style used in prototype.js and script.aculo.us. Any recommendations for such a tool? In a similar vein, does it make a noticeable difference in production when comments are removed and several script files are combined into a single one? Michael -- Michael Schuerig Most people

Hello, I''m facing a strange problem with a long list of Sortable items in a container that has an overflow:auto. If I drag an item from the top to the bottom, the container div is scrolling, but there is a difference between the position of the dragged element and the mouse pointer. An example is better that a thousand words. Try to drag the first item at the bottom of the

Hi All, Has anyone here used zkoss.org? What do you think of it in comparison to scriptaculous? -- Leonard Burton, N9URK http://www.jiffyslides.com service-CbOvBfcOUrWrJCssh9Shfg@public.gmane.org leonardburton-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org "The prolonged evacuation would have dramatically affected the survivability of the occupants."

Hey there! I''m in the process of looking through the various bug reports and tickets and fixing script.aculo.us as I go along. As I want a 1.6.2 bugfix release to happen this week, please help me out with: - Looking throught the open bugs list on the trac, testing stuff and giving helpful comments (like "+1") - Identifiying what bugs/patches should be included (answer to

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'',

To constraint the movement to a specific area, I added the following lines in dragdrop.js This will allow you to specify: area: [2,3,100,120] to draw a rectangular area where movement is allowed... might have very strange side effects, just needed a quick/dirty hack. Plus I installed script.aculo.us just 10 minutes ago :) Don''t flame pls. Manuele line:202 (please note the ","

Hi, First thanks for your great scripts! According to the documents:http://script.aculo.us/drag-and-drop The Draggable''s option ''handle'' value is a string referencing a CSS class. The first child/grandchild/etc. element found within the element that has this CSS class will be used as the handle. However, in the source code file dragdrop.js line 250, is, this.handle=

I asked the other day about this problem but haven''t received a response. Trying again: I just downloaded 1.6 and can''t get a simple draggable to work, which is weird. I know it''s not my browser since the demos are working. Here is my simple code. I''ve also had the "new Draggable" between the select tags. Didn''t change anything.

I''m writing an appliation that contains several dynamically created lists. I had hoped that the following method for using the Sortable library from scriptaculous would work: 1) create the list 2) create a Sortable for it 3) create another list 4) create a Sortable for it and so on. Unfortunately this doesn''t work. I can''t find any info in the documentation for
