I am encountering this same issue with the following structure:
<div id="sortme"> <div id="item1"> blah <div class="blah">text here</div> blah </div> <div id="item2"> blah <div class="blah">text here</div> blah </div> <div id="item3"> blah <div class="blah">text here</div> blah </div> <div id="item4"> blah <div class="blah">text here</div> blah </div> </div> Interestingly, it works in IE7. In Firefox, the items are grabbable, but not droppable (divs dont move out of the way, dropping it puts it back in original position). Each image has a float: left attribute, as soon as I take it out, everything works. blainegarrett wrote: > > Hi, > I am not sure if this is the appropriate list to post to, but the > Interface site says to post bugs, issues, etc to the main trac for jQuery. > > Anywho, I am having issues with floating sortables when the sortables have > child elements. > My situation is that I have a bunch of floating fixed width LI "slides" > and inside of the LI tags is an IMG tag.
