I’m glad I stumbled upon this library!! When working with Joomla they are always causing conflicts when they upgrade their Mootool library. The way my software will be independent of their changes. Many Thanks!!!

Anyone have an idea of how to swap the elements instead of moving and sorting?

Hi,
I need your help.
I’ve two problems
First, I need to track the following informations after drag and drop operation.
a:Source item coordinates(x and y )
b:Source item id.

c:Target item coordinates(x and y )
d:Target item id.

Second,I have two containers one for drag and drop and another for resort (all the drag and drop images) container. When I drag and drop the images
in container 1,its immediately resort to container2 .

Could you help me please ?

Hi Tim
I have done drag and drop using TOolMan.Now I have to track/print the dragged item position number (current item position number), target item position number Where I want to drop the Item.For example I have the following items in my list:

Item 1
Item 2
Item 3
Item 4
Item 5
Item 6
Item 7
Item 8
item 9

Let us suppose I draged ’Item 6′ to ‘Item 8′, now I have to save the position number or position of ‘Item 6′ and ‘Item 8′ .

I couldnot figure it out how can I do it?

Any ideas please help me!

This is Great Code. I have used in my application and it is working fine… I found solutoins of IE7 so thought my be that will help you…

Here is the code …

onTopWhileDragging : function(zIndex) {
var zIndex = typeof(zIndex) != “undefined” ? zIndex : 100000;
var originalZIndex = ToolMan.css().readStyle(this.element, “z-index”)

this.register(‘dragstart’, function(dragEvent)
{
dragEvent.group.element.style.zIndex = zIndex
})
this.register(‘dragend’, function(dragEvent)
{
var ua = navigator.userAgent;
var MSIEOffset = ua.indexOf(“MSIE “);

if (MSIEOffset == -1)
{

}
else
{
if (parseFloat(ua.substring(MSIEOffset + 5,ua.indexOf(“;”, MSIEOffset))) == 8)
{
dragEvent.group.element.style.zIndex = “auto”;
}
else if (parseFloat(ua.substring(MSIEOffset + 5,ua.indexOf(“;”, MSIEOffset))) == 7)
{
//dragEvent.group.element.style.zIndex = originalZIndex;
}
}
})
},

Now this will work for IE * and IE 7

Thanks to All,

I have integrated this with Django. Has anyone figured out a way to update the Django models (tables). I would like to save the order and update the sequence field in the table.

Look at the post above yours. The fix is there. Thanks emillium.

To fix the issue with IE8 replace line 122 of drag.cs (dragEvent.group.element.style.zIndex = originalZIndex) with:
dragEvent.group.element.style.zIndex = ‘auto’
