if binding without container element not working f

问题:

I modified a JSFiddle from rniemeyer to illustrate the problem: http://jsfiddle.net/mTqMt/1/

  <div class="container" data-bind="sortable: groupOrItems">
    <!--ko if: type=='Group'-->
    <div>
      <div class="title" data-bind="text: name()"></div>
      <!--here I would actually have a nested sortable-->
    </div>
    <!--/ko-->
    <!--ko if: type=='Item'-->
    <div class="item" data-bind="text: name()"></div>
    <!--/ko-->
  </div>

Firebug says: "TypeError: node is null" line 546 in knockout-latest.debug.js

I tried it with "foreach" instead of "sortable" and then it worked.

Any ideas?

The sortable binding and jQuery UI sortable really needs a parent element to grab onto for the stuff that you are sorting.

You would want to at least wrap your whole "item" in an element like:

  <div class="container" data-bind="sortable: groupOrItems">
    <div>
      <!--ko if: type=='Group'-->
      <div>
        <div class="title" data-bind="text: name()"></div>
        <!--here I would actually have a nested sortable-->
      </div>
      <!--/ko-->
      <!--ko if: type=='Item'-->
      <div class="item" data-bind="text: name()"></div>
      <!--/ko-->
    </div>
  </div>
