JQuery UI sortable: restore position based on some condition
- by dafi
I call sortable.stop() to make an ajax call to store some data after drag&drop operation.
When the ajax call returns an error (application logic error or net problem) I want to move the dragged element to its original/start position, how can I achieve it?
The scenario should be
user drags A to B
the sortable.stop() event is called, it triggers an ajax call
the ajax call returns an error
inside the stop() event we get the ajax error
move A to its original position
user again move A to B
everything is ok
A remains in its new position in B
Steps 6-8 are shown to clarify a successive drag can be done and previous error must be forgotten
