issues with _dragDrop

Trying to simulate drag and drop using the _dragDrop api.
Have an id that I'd like to use.
I've tried a few different variations of using _byId with the _dragDrop api.. can someone please give me an example that I can work with so that I know that I'm using it correctly, please?

Thanks,
Glenn

    Hi Glenn,

    Can you show how you are using it? It should be something like

    _dragDrop(_byId("dragMe"), _byId("dropArea"))

    Sure, sorry, was just at lunch :p

    _dragDrop( _listItem(_byId("node-A0_AZ013_5_1_4fd9e1f5ad5c93406a00a328")), _listItem(_byId("28884832-0440-e19f-e948-16e770d3235b")));

    I tried adding the _listItem, since that's what they are that I'm dragging and dropping, but that didn't seem to work either (ie my initial attempt was without the _listItem, just using the _byId).

    One of the problems that I wonder about, is that a lot of the stuff we're doing is dynamic, and I wondered if there were any issues with that.
    For example, in my other post regarding the onclick for a table cell/td, I put some console.log's into the document ready section. I noticed that in looking at the console logs within Chrome, it takes a couple seconds for the properties of the values to be filled. The initial call, produces "[]", then a couple seconds later, they're filled with the td: "[<td...</td>]".
    With that in mind, I used _wait with 3000 for a 3 second delay. However, I _still_ am not finding the dynamic elements.

    Thank you for looking into this :)

    Narayan,

    Haven't heard from you on this.. any additional thoughts?

    Also, if you see, the id names are rather unique and I'd prefer to be able to select them relatively, but unsure how I'd go about that..? Like just selecting the first listItem within the table..?

    Anyway, any additional thoughts would be great (like perhaps the _dragDrop doesn't work well on such and such browser?).

    Thanks
