Hey Ignacio, I’m not a big fan of integrated ajax functionality. While it provides a simple solution at first when you need something a little more complex or customised it starts to show it’s limitations.
Rather than using the sx;div tag why not just use a plain div and then use a jQuery ajax call, which can be triggered by your drag and drop event, to retrieve the content from the server side. I suspect that you want to pass your event coordinates to the server and display something appropriate. I don’t use S2 ajax plugin as I’ve been burnt by it too often. So, somebody else may be of more help on that front. Z. > > Hello Z., > you are right. I am really new to JQuery & Javascript as I've just focused > into server side programming.
