    <p>I currently have an input form generated using Cocoon and would like to make the input fields created by it sortable (using sortable from jQuery-ui).</p> <p>The code for the nested form is: </p> <pre><code>&lt;%= f.simple_fields_for :checkout_procedures do |procedure| %&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;%= render 'checkout_procedure_fields', :f =&gt; procedure %&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;% end %&gt; &lt;div class="links"&gt; &lt;%= link_to_add_association 'add step', f, :checkout_procedures %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p>The partial that is rendered (_checkout_procedure_fields) is: </p> <pre><code>&lt;div class="checkout_procedure nested-fields"&gt; &lt;table&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;%= f.input :step %&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;&lt;%= link_to_remove_association "remove step", f %&gt;&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p>I am able to get the existing elements sortable by putting them inside of a <code>&lt;div&gt;</code> and setting it sortable using jQuery:</p> <pre><code>&lt;div class="sortThese"&gt; &lt;%= f.simple_fields_for :checkout_procedures do |procedure| %&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;%= render 'checkout_procedure_fields', :f =&gt; procedure %&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;% end %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="links"&gt; &lt;%= link_to_add_association 'add step', f, :checkout_procedures %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;script&gt; $(document).ready(function() { $(".sortThese").sortable(); }); &lt;/script&gt; </code></pre> <p>But doing this breaks the functionality of Cocoon's <code>link_to_add_association</code> and <code>link_to_remove_association</code>. Using <code>&lt;ul&gt;</code> with <code>&lt;li&gt;</code> also results in the same Cocoon malfunction. I've been looking around to hack some javascript that moves each input form in and out of the sortable div (doing this seems to make the links work again), but obviously this is inelegant. If anybody has any suggestions, I'd really appreciate them!</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
