Hi everybody,
I have a html table in which each line (<tr>) represents a group of
client computers. Each line can be expanded to show the clients belonging to the group. The <tr> containing the clients are always generated but hidden and showed when clicking the plus button at the beginning of each line.
The clients themselves (they are <div>) can be dragged and dropped in another group as long as this group is already expanded. So far it works fine.
What I am trying to achieve now is that the
client can be dragged to a collapsed group and after a second or so hovering the group it will be expanded and the
client can be dropped amongst the other clients of the group.
I programmed the hover using the in and outevents of the droppable and it expands the group all right, but (and now it starts to be hard to explain with words ;) the behavior of the droppable (the client) is still as if the table line that appeared were not there : the in out and drop events of the droppable are fired on the old position of the elements, and the in out and drop events of the newly appeared <tr> are never fired.
It looks as if JQuery memorizes the position, size etc. of the elements when the drag starts, and these values are not updated if there is a change in the DOM before the drop happens...
Can someone confirm this behavior is normal, or can it be caused by another problem in my own code ? Any workaround ?
(the question is quite bloated already so I don't include any code but I'll gladly upload it if required)
