Hi, Just noticed that if a draggable element uses a percentage in the style for 'left', a couple things don't seem to work right.

But if you try it with 'left:20%' two odd things happen. The first is very quick in this example and hard to see (but shows up more in my production version) - at the start of the drag, there is a quick flash or wiggle to left=0 then back again. This does not happen with a 'px' setting only with a '%' setting. The second is the x,y location where it reverts to - it always goes back to the numeric quantity in pixel units, not the amount as a percentage. Wouldn't this be a bug? I like to use percentage because my container element changes in size if the browser window is resized or more options are chosen, etc. For now however, I'm doing something like this: var wid=$('container').getWidth(); var gleft=Math.round(wid*0.04); // left:4% gdiv.setStyle({position:'absolute', top:gtop+'px', left:gleft +'px', width:'92%'}); With that it doesn't flash, and stays lined up as the drag and drop operates, but of course it isn't reacting to dynamic changes in container size as it would with a percentage.
