I just encountered and fixed a problem that might plague others when using non-list Sortables with a handle in IE. I created a sortable using divs rather than list items and it worked fine in IE and FF without a handle but when I specified a handle (which was a div) it stopped working in IE, the items wouldn't drag and trying would just select the text.
The issue was that IE and I differed in our opion on how long the handle div was - I thought it was all the way accross the page, IE though it ended at the end of the text that it contained. IE was right, I was wrong, so that when I went to drag I wasn't over the div at all, even though it looked like I was. I added 'position: relative;' to the css class for the div and then everything worked fine - I suspect you could also set the width as well and that would work. Hope this helps someone avoid the wasted hour I spent figuring it out.
