I'm trying to finish up a long-standing personal project to get the
drag-n-drop sortables working. I've gotten pretty close:

http://darrelaustin.com/stuff/dragndrophelp/

It's based off of gregphoto's work here:

http://www.gregphoto.net/sortable/advanced/

I have my page working fairly well. There are 3 remaining issues that
I hope are solvable.

Quick explanation of what the page should do: Items in the left column
should be dragged to the right column. The right column is then
sortable.

The issues:

1) When dragging from the left column to the right, I can't get the
ghosted image to cross the columns. Any way to do that? I'd like the
ghosted image to follow the mouse across.

2) I don't need the left column sortable. Just draggable. Is that
doable?

3) Both columns (divs) are scrollable. If you scroll the left column
to the bottom, then drag an item to the right, you will note that the
actual item is no longer in-line with the cursor, but rather offset by
some (I imagine) percentage of the div on the left that is hidden. Is
there any way around that? That's the major issue I have no in terms
of usability.

Bonus) Lastly, is there a way to 'clone' an item from the left rather
than remove it when dragged? The last time I looked into this (well
over a year ago) it appears that, no, that's just not an option that
is going to be offered in scriptaculous, but thought I'd ask.

Thanks for any help/suggestions!
