Hi All,
I am trying to develop a dynamic form creator application, whereby we
can drag objects from a "palette" and drop them onto a "form" to build
the design of our form.
To achieve this, when I have dragged the object, and dropped it onto
the "form" area, I want to get the position of where the object was
dropped.
I have a droppable area:
Droppables.add('dropArea', {onDrop:addItem});
And a method that calls a webservice via AJAX:
function addItem(element, dropon, event)
{
var s = element.id;
//
element.width,element.height,element.top,element.left,
AJAXDDtest.DBAccess.InsertField(s,element.innerHTML,0,0,0,0,
onGetDataComplete, onGetDataTimeOut);
}
Essentially, i want to get the width, height, top, and left of the
element that was dropped - is this possible? I have tried looking
around the sciptaculous wiki, but I can't find a DOM for the
droppables, unless someone can point me in the right direction?
I am building the draggables as follows:
var aproducts = document.getElementsByClassName('box');
for (var i = 0; i < aproducts.length; i++) {
new Draggable(aproducts[i].id, {ghosting:false, revert:true,
onEnd:endItem})
}
Any help would be greatfully received,
Thanks,
James.
