Been playing around a little with the Rico javascript/ajax library as I’d like to make use of the drag and drop functions for the interface on our JoinIn project. It all looks pretty good, although I’ve not been able to find an example of the drag and drop functions where you can just move an object back and forth between two ‘dropzones’. I had a go at creating one myself, though it seems a little flaky at the moment as the lists aren’t always refreshed properly once an object is moved, it appears erratic as to when/if the list is refreshed.
It seems quite complicated what I’ve done to achieve this, though I’m sure there are more efficient and reliable ways of coding it, so I’ll have a look at improving it later this week.
