I have spent quite a bit of time trying to figure this out.... with very little success.
Like many others I am hoping to figure out how to have a list of sortables with sortabels inside each one. So say sortable sections with sortable items in each section. Then I would like to be able to sort sections and items but only sort items inside of its parent section, NOT OTHER SECTIONS. So I think I have looked every place that is out there with little luck, so jut in case I missed something or just the right person comes by please let me know how to get this going. demo: http://jeremysummers.com/sortables/index.html I have two examples on the page, one with the containment: ('parent') acting just like everyone says it does, the item jumps up to the top of the page. The second on the page with out the containment: ('parent') and working super great ... other then the fact that items can go outside of there section. sigh... who would have thought just like that we would find a limit / bug to such a amazing script....
