If I do “jquery sortable” on a contenteditable item(s), I then can't focus mouse anywhere inside contenteditable text anymore

Question

Strangely this is broken only in Firefox and Opera (IE, Chrome and Safari works as it should).

Any suggestions for a quick fix?

Answer 1

Yes so for me it was the combination of adding:

cancel: 'input,textarea,button,select,option,[contenteditable]'

and then taking off the .disableSelection();

so i'm left with:

$("#sortable_list").sortable({
    cancel: 'input,textarea,button,select,option,[contenteditable]'
});
