OK, I'm experimenting a bit with RubaXa's Sortable plugin. (Here's a great example page)
var sort = new Sortable($('#items')[0], {
animation: 150,
onUpdate: function(evt/**Event*/){
var item = evt.item;
console.log(evt);
}
});
The Plugin works fine. The thing is how can I get the index at which the element has been dropped? (e.g. from index 2 of the list to index 0)
The event that's passed to onSort
has the fields you need: oldIndex
and newIndex
:
var sort = new Sortable(items, {
onSort: function (evt) {
console.log(evt.oldIndex + ' -> ' + evt.newIndex);
}
});
<!-- Sortable -->

<ul id="items">
<li data-id="1">item 1</li>
<li data-id="2">item 2</li>
<li data-id="3">item 3</li>
<li data-id="4">item 4</li>
<li data-id="5">item 5</li>
</ul>
