Jquery drag /drop and clone
- by Sajeev
Hi I need to achive this ..
I have a set of droppable items ( basically I am droping designs on a apparel ) and I am dropping a clone..
If I don't like the dropped object (designs) - I want to delete that by doing something like hidden .
But I am unable to do that.
Please help me..
here is the code
var clone;
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".items").draggable({helper: 'clone',cursor: 'hand'});
$(".droparea").droppable({
accept: ".items",
hoverClass: 'dropareahover',
tolerance: 'pointer',
drop: function(ev, ui)
{
var dropElemId = ui.draggable.attr("id");
var dropElem = ui.draggable.html();
clone = $(dropElem).clone(); // clone it and hold onto the jquery object
clone.id="newId";
clone.css("position", "absolute");
clone.css("top", ui.absolutePosition.top);
clone.css("left", ui.absolutePosition.left);
clone.draggable({ containment: 'parent' ,cursor: 'crosshair'});
$(this).append(clone);
alert("done dragging ");
/lets assume I have a delete button when I click that clone should dissapear so that I can drop another design - but the following code has no effect
//and the item is still visible , how to make it dissapear ?
$('#newId').css("visibility","hidden");
}
});
});
