Revert after dropping a draggable, only if out of bounds

ruby-talk
1

Hi, I have a div tag as a “container” for all my draggable objects… My
goal is to be able to decide whether to revert these objects based on
where they are dropped. If they are “out of bounds”, or not in the
container after they’ve been dropped, I want them to revert, otherwise,
drop normally.

I currently have a few JS functions setup that calculate the boundries
of the container, and alert me on mouseup… true if they’ve been dropped
outside of the container, and false if they’ve been dropped inside the
container.

By default, the droppable object is not set to revert… How would I go
about making this object revert only if it’s been dropped outside of the
container?

Thanks ahead of time for any help…

Please, this is definitely not a question for a Ruby mailing list.

You would do better asking this on a JavaScript or DHTML mailing list.
