You're right - the 'return false' worked perfect for the <span>! Thank you.
Unfortunately, I'm still stuck! In the same scenario, I have a <textarea> rather than a <span>. A mousedown bind with 'return false' prevents editing in the textarea, but without it the draggable bind is triggered! So, for example: <li class="trigger">This entire element triggers the draggable except for: <textarea id="notrigger">this editable textarea</textarea></li> Do you know a way to keep the draggable <li> and enable a <textarea> within it to be editable? Thanks for all your help!
