Dragging and Dropping with Internet Explorer 7

Reported by: tazz_ben Assigned to: thomas@fesch.at
Priority: normal Milestone: 1.2.7
Component: script.aculo.us Version:
Severity: major Keywords: IE, drag and drop

Description

When dragging and dropping divs in IE7, sometimes the during the drag function the item your dragging gets "stuck" (sometimes a not allowed symbol shows up as well). Then you have to release the drag, the dragging item gets unstuck but the drag continues. You then have to click on the area you want to drop.

This is in Script.aculo.us 1.7.0

Here is a video of the problem in action. It should be noted that it doesn't happen EVERY time, just on occasion.

I have this problem as well. It happens "most of the time"-- definitely not some kind of edge case. Create any draggable and play around with it; the draggable will get "stuck" to the cursor. It does seem like holding the click button down longer triggers it more consistently, but that might just be my imagination.

I had the same problem too.

I resolve it deleting "alt" option in the drag image.

I have the same problem. It looks like this happens in IE7 when the drag element is an image. I replaced my drag element with a DIV and it all works fine now.

I'm having this problem too using script.aculo.us v1.8.1. Removing the alt tag from the image as suggested above did help, however the animation isn't anywhere near as smooth as in FF2.
