jquery plugin alternatives to jquery ui draggable?

Question

seems to be a bug in jquery UI when trying to drag a draggable outside the screen (i.e. when the page scrolls down) where the draggable loses it's position relative to the cursor.

you can see the bug here... http://jqueryui.com/demos/draggable/default.html

are there any other recommended jquery draggable plugins i could use instead?

alernatively i could try and fix the bug but I fear it's beyond me atm!

thanks :)

By far the best drag/drop plugins I've found for jQuery are located here: http://threedubmedia.com/.

They provide new jQuery event handlers for the key stages of a drag-and-drop action, which allow you to customise the behaviour very easily. Just check out the demos to see what can be achieved using them.
