You may want to change it slighty, for instance, so that ghosting is not required... but all my draggables are ghosted in my application so that's just how I did it...

Basically, what I did to overcome the problem you described, is on drag init, if the draggable has the option "ghosting" and "floating" both set to true, I clone the element and attach it at the document level instead of the container level. Therefore, it can now be dragged throughout the entire document instead of just within the container it was originally created within... My dragdrop.js file also contains general optimizations to the droppales processing (makes dragging MUCH smoother when you have multiple droppables on the page... see my past posts on the same topic). Hopefully, you'll at least be able to see what I did to solve the problem you are having, and if anything copy that logic to your own application... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Robin Haswell Sent: Wednesday, February 15, 2006 3:16 PM To: rails-spinoffs@lists.rubyonrails.org Subject: [Rails-spinoffs] Draggables and overflow:auto Hey guys. I'm trying to drag between two lists, except one list is really long so I set a height on the <ul> with overflow:auto. Unfortunately when I drag between the lists I can't drag items outside of the <ul> with the overflow on. Does anyone know how I can make this work? I think I might be able to hack up something with rico's live tables, but that seems a bit overkill. Any advice appreciated :-) Oh the ul is in a div with a width that is floated right. Dunno if that makes a difference, some people on the intarweb have mentioned it though.
