[jQuery] Sortable Element Position

[applecoremilo]

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out how i can get the current element position of
a sortable list after drag has complete. Should i be using traverse
for this??


code example:
the second alert gives me -1 as an index.


ie:  <ul id="foo"><li>value</li><li>value</li><li>value</li></ul>

$("#foo").sortable({update:function(e)
                                                         {
                                                        alert(e.target.id);
                                                        
alert($("foo").index(e.target));
                                                         }
                });
