Can't drag albums without being taken to edit album page

I'm trying to rearrange the order of the albums in a gallery I'm working on, and the drag and drop approach is not working. I can drag an album, but as soon as I let up the mouse button, it treats it as if I'd clicked on the album, and whisks me off to the Edit Album page without having saved my order change. Yes, I did set album ordering to Manual, and it didn't help.

Maybe this is a browser compatibility issue? I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.11 on Mac OS X 10.4.11 if that helps at all...

Also, Firebug is showing the following Javascript error for that page:
```this.element has no properties

this.menu = $A(this.element.getElementsByTagName('a'));

admin.js (line 298)`

And while it's probably not related, the main gallery page shows the following Javascript error:
```Class is not defined

var Fabtabs = Class.create();

admin.js (line 292)`

(I hope I got the code formatting right - it would be nice if this form had a preview button!)

  • This is a problem with the browser and where you place your cursor to drag. Keep it off the thumbnail or the album name (or anywhere that the cursor turns into a link pointer.)

    No, sbillard, this is not really a brower problem, that is normal behaviour. Since you have to click to drag, a link is simply clicked then. It's in all browsers I have.
  • Just another confirmation. I've been having this same problem since version 1.1.2 http://www.zenphoto.org/support/topic.php?id=2174&replies=9

    I just try to keep things sorted by date now.
  • I'm going to add a "drag handle" to the interface so you have a place to click that won't cause you to activate the album edit link.
