leachus2002 Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Hi Everyone. I have been looking at this website http://www.webresourcesdepot.com/dynamic-dragn-drop-with-jquery-and-php/ which shows an excellent example of using JQuery and PHP to create, and edit an ordered list. This is great for changing the order of a list - however, I would like to be able to move between several lists - and update a variable called "list_id". Does anyone know if this can be done, and if so, are there any tutorials out there to do this? Thanks Matt Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/244491-php-and-jquery/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

leachus2002 Posted August 11, 2011 Author Share Posted August 11, 2011 Hi, Yep - for example, a list would be a queue of work for a member of staff - and I would like to drag from 1 member of staff to another.

JKG Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 oh i see. are they in the same table? edit: even if they are, i dont think you can. not because of php but because of the way jquery uses sortable lists. i might be wrong, im not great with js and so i cant help you. sorry.

leachus2002 Posted August 11, 2011 Author Share Posted August 11, 2011 Yes they are - it would just be a case of updating the employee_id field of the table Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/244491-php-and-jquery/#findComment-1255832 Share on other sites More sharing options...

JKG Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 fair enough. drop through tabs is pretty insane. i have alot of experience with this approach, but just using one sortable list.
