It really does sound fairly trivial to solve. You're probably suffering a dearth of answers (along with the many other noobie questioners) in an unspoken attempt to get you to read the documentation, search for someone who has asked a similar question, or learn more about Javscript before diving full on into Script.aculo.us. Or maybe the really smart people who frequent this list are all on vacation. (I'm still here.. what does that say?)
Take a look here first: http://wiki.script.aculo.us/scriptaculous/show/Sortable.create (note the options that may be used) http://wiki.script.aculo.us/scriptaculous/show/Draggable (more options that may be used in your Sortable declaration) ... pay particular attention to the callbacks. Peek under the hood to see what parameters they pass, and when. For further enlightening reading, take a look at the SortableObserver object in dragdrop.js TAG On Jan 22, 2007, at 4:57 AM, caefer wrote: > > hi all, > > is there really no one who can help me with this? > > I basically need a sortable. plain and simple as that. > BUT item dragged onto it should become children of their original > parent when they are being dragged out of the sortable. > > think of three areas: > 1. the container the draggables are coming from (the original parent) > 2. the sortable > 3. anything else > > with a normal sortable the draggables become the sortables children > onHover. > that's fine with me. but when i drag them out of the sortable and not > yet onto the original parent (that's 3 then) they should become > children of 1 again. and reverting to 1 should of course work. > > also. dropping draggables onto the sortable should not move them > from 1 > to 2 but copy them.
