Hey
excellent work!!!

$(‘mySortable’).sortable(‘refresh’);

it sloved my problem in a sec…
I was trying to debug this for a few days… I didn’t see any reason why I couldn’t drop any draggable on my sortable if I didn’t refresh first…

Freakin’ brilliant . . . so many other sites out there have 10 times as much code but don’t work as well (or at all).

Any ideas on how to submit the sortable list items in the order they’ve been arranged to a php/mysql database solution?

Is there a bug report on this?

Thanks a lot stickman, that was neat. But i’m wondering how do you now get the items back from the sortable to the drag-pool again? Suppose the user wants to undo a selection and remove an item from the sort list? Thanks again.
