Description

Try the following html with jquery.ui 1.5 in Firefox, you can see item 1, 2 and 3. Try it in IE7, you see nothing. The bug occurred when sortable items are 'floated' and within a table.

This is not a bug within sortables, but apparently within the jQuery core - setting css("position", "relative") on the container causes the behaviour - but it's not like that if you set it in the style attribute before explicitely.

Would be great if you could enter it again in http://dev.jquery.com/newticket. Thanks!
