Sortable + revert + IE6 + scrollbar = weird behaviour

Hello developers,

I've got a little issue with the sortable feature of Jquery UI. I've got examples set up and the problem only occurs in IE6 when you've got a scrollbar (not attached to the top, but when you've scrolled down).

When I create 2 columns with divs that are sortable, add a "revert:

300" to the sortable function, in IE6 the div that you are dragging

will "float" to the wrong position when you've got a scrollbar. It

will end up in the correct position when the "revert" is done.

Example:

http://www.bittersweetlife.nl/test/test-doctype.html

Note that this only happens when I've got a (valid) doctype defined.

In other (newer) browsers this works just fine.

Here's an example without doctype: http://www.bittersweetlife.nl/test/test-nodoctype.html.

It works fine then in all browsers, including IE6.

As requested (http://groups.google.com/group/jquery-ui/browse_thread/thread/db14e1c764469a59), here's the ticket.

Cheers,

Paul
