Drag & Drop w/absolute positioning is broken

[billk@…]

I have a web page where the drag & drop zone are positioned absolutely. (Is it possible to attach testcases to this bug database ??? If not, I can mail you the testcase.)

1. The drop zone doesn't accept the draggable
2. When you release the draggable it slides back to the wrong position
3. When you release a draggable, the style information should be restored to it's original value. However, it is set to position=absolute (regardless of the original setting) This causes problems during scrolling, window resize, etc.

Absolute positioning testcase (revised)

Table testcase (works better than absolute but still breaks in IE)

[schontz@…]

The system should use advantage of dojo.xml.htmlUtil.getStyle instead of setting the values to null.

These issues all appear to be fixed in the attached test files on IE and Firefox. Inspection with the DOM Inspector verifies the fix for the 3rd issue. Absolutely positioned draggables seem to be having problems in Safari, but I think that's a different bug.

Closing as fixed.
