When I use JQuery UI Sortable with a handlers (or without) there’s no possibility to select a text from the rest of the element. I have tried “cancel” param with no result.
$('ul').sortable({
distance: 15,
items: '> li',
handle: '> span'
}).disableSelection();
Simply remove
.disableSelection()and it’s fixed 🙂You can select the text but not the handler.
