No worries. Long weekends are good for the soul. We have two of them in May 
here in the UK :)

Well, that's a pretty generic message, even by IE's standards  - not sure what 
to suggest there, unfortunately. Looking at dragdrop.js (v 1.7.0), around 
line 685, there's some code inside a call to Array.each() that tries to find 
a handle on each element. Maybe worth peppering a few debugger; statements 
around there to see if you can locate the problem? $(e).down(), for example, 
in line 687, will only get triggered if the handle option is set.

Nope, that's the right way to do it - if you modify your container (other than 
by dragging and dropping), recreate the Sortable. IIRC, there's some nifty 
clean-up code under the hood that will remove the old Sortable before 
applying the new one, so you don't end up with multiple event handlers on the 
nodes that were already there.
