I use the word "proxy" because that is how it is worded in YUI. I'm referring
to the ghosted element that is physically being dragged along with the
cursor during a drag and drop. 

It seems that the interface plugin drag and drop function creates a copy of
the element being dragged. I've found that this causes problems when
dragging table rows in IE. The ghosted element either doesn't display, or it
ends up dragging the entire table as the ghosted element. I can get it to
work by sticking divs inside the table rows and using those as the draggable
elements, but that seems like a silly solution. 

It would be ideal to be able to define a "proxy" element to be used during
the drag. That way I can define CSS just for that element to affect how the
ghosted image appears. I can also use a div for this ghosted element to
represent the table row that I'm trying to drag. Or I could use an image for
the ghosted element.

Does JQuery/Interface provide a way to use a proxy element during a drag and
drop?

Thanks,

Brian
