Subject: [Rails-spinoffs] overloading dragdrop.js
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 content) of a div has changed?
I can think of 2 manners, but both seem antiquated
compared to the techniques here:
1. put a hidden field inside the div with the
top+left, updating these values upon
Draggable.finishDrag, triggering an AJAX event
2. Put a whole call to AJAX.Updater inside of a new
method of Draggable, called when finishDrag is nearly
done.
Maybe that's really 1 manner. In any event, is there a
way to extend the Draggable object without modifying
dragdrop.js? Can you add more methods via
Draggable.prototype?
Alternately, if anyone knows of a means to trigger an
AJAX event in response to a purely DHTML-type event,
please offer a suggestion.
thanks,
Jason
