Using sortable *inside* an iframe

Using sortable *inside* an iframe


Hi all,
I'm trying use jquery to access an iframe so I can modify its content
(I'm making a basic CMS).
The iframe content includes a section I'd like to make sortable, but I
can't seem to get sortable working correctly inside the frame.
Outside of the iframe, sortable works fine so I know that I've got the
right scripts downloaded and installed.
Here is my (simplified) code:
$('#iframeid').contents().find(".group").sortable();
When this is run, the elements kind of gain the ability to get dragged
about, but there's almost no control over where they end up, it's very
jerky and the elements end up all over the place.
Is this a bug, or is there a different way I should approach this
problem?
