Ok here is the code: http://jsbin.com/oxuqa3/edit

No ideas from anyone? Does anyone at least understand what I mean? Do you see the problem?

Thank you. I confirmed this is a bug and have filed it here http://bugs.jqueryui.com/ticket/6939 along with a more minimal test case: http://jsbin.com/utaxo3

I got the same problem and found a quick and dirty solution without using a workarround with an extra div-container for the draggable.

The problem is caused by this pice of code at line 3051 at j-query-ui-1.10.4.custom.js (including all parts of jqueryUI)

2. // bugfix for http://dev.jquery.com/ticket/1749
3. if ( (/absolute/).test( el.css("position") ) ) {
4. el.css({ position: "absolute", top: el.css("top"), left: el.css("left") });
5. } else if (el.is(".ui-draggable")) {
6. el.css({ position: "absolute", top: iniPos.top, left: iniPos.left });
7. }

If you uncomment this code part, the problem is gone. Unfortunately I have no idea what kind of bug the above code should have fixed :P. Pretty funny that a bugfix actually caused another bug.
