But also this is a jQuery UI callback, which means jQuery UI is already passing two parameters to this function, event, and ui. See
http://docs.jquery.com/UI/Droppable/droppable#options "All jQuery UI callbacks receive two arguments: The original browser event and a prepared ui object, view below for a documentation of this object (if you name your second argument 'ui'): * ui.options - options used to initialize the droppable * ui.position - current position of the draggable helper * ui.absolutePosition - current absolute position of the draggable helper * ui.draggable - current draggable element * ui.helper - current draggable helper" So if you're interested in those, you can do drop: function(event, ui) { dropped(foo, bar, event, ui) //or dropped(event, ui, foo, bar) }) or something like that. If the arguments that the plugin provides are sufficient (you don't need to pass any of your own arguments), your setup might look something like this function dropped(event, ui) { ... } $("#myDiv").droppable({ ..., drop: dropped } So you still just provide a reference to the function, regardless of how many parameters it will be passed/what they are named. - Richard On Mon, Dec 8, 2008 at 3:15 PM, Michael Geary <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > From: DAZ > > > > Just one more question - what if I need to provide arguments > > to the function?
