Richard,
Fantastic - just what I was looking for!
I now know where the item starts.. however, when it gets to the new
location.. how do I reassociate the item with it's new home.. it seems
to copy across the information.
I'm using the following code to move the item :
// Move to Cargo function
function MoveToCargo($item) {
var $Hanger = $('#Hanger'), $Cargo = $('#Cargo');
$item.fadeOut(function() {
$item.appendTo($Cargo).fadeIn();
$item.data("location") == "Cargo"; //this was how I've
been trying
to reassociate it.. but no joy.
});
};
Any ideas?
Tia,
Paul
