Hopefully I am in the right place so please forgive me if I'm not.

 Basically, here is my problem. I can get WebParts drag & drop to work beautifully in ie6 and ie7, the moment I try and go over to firefox, my settings are still there, but I can't drag and drop. If done some initial digging in here, and extensive googleing, but havent found a working solution as of yet. I have found a lot of people pointing to http://blogs.neudesic.com/blogs/david_barkol/archive/2006/11/07/631.aspx as an answer, but this doesn't seem to work either as it is already out dated due to the release of ajax 1.0.

Does any one have a good source that will correct this problem? I am up to date with AJAX, as well as using the latest framework

I have a normal web parts manager, normal webzones, information is stored in an SQL DB, nothing fancy. If I am missing something, its possible as I am still new to using Web Parts.

 In any case, If anyone could point me in the right direction I would be most appreciative.

 Cheers
 

In order for drag and drop to work in firefox you will need to follow the instructions in that post.
The 1.0 release doesn't support d 'n d with firefox so that post is still valid.
You should use the latest CTP version.

 I appreciate you taking the time to response.

However, here are some of the issues I am running into. If I go through the instructions provided, I get  Could not load type 'Microsoft.Web.Preview.UI.Controls.WebParts.WebPartManager'. I read through some of the posts and it mentioned that this needs to be changed due to namesspace changes. Fine, no problem...
I go through and update the webconfig once again using the new web.config settings to account for the namespace changes and i get "Could Not Load type 'System.Web.UI.Compataility". I did some digging and found out that this is because there was a piece missing from the release for validation. There was a post that had a patch specifically for the validation so I loaded it. Unfortunantly, once I loaded it, I received once again the Could not load type 'Microsoft.Web.Preview.UI.Controls.WebParts.WebPartManager'.
 I feel like I am going in circles. It is however entirely possible I am incompetent :D

 In Any case, Any help you can give, I am more than open to.

Cheers

 

Hi,

You may visit http://ajax.asp.net/files/Migration_Guide_Beta2_to_RC.aspx .Follow the guide and set the configuration manually step by step.

Thanks.

 Thanks you thank you thank you...

Got it to work.. using the information you provided...

The only thing I want to mention for those looking for it in the future is that the Validation piece doesn't quite work out of the box. To correct that problem I had to also utilize the solution provided by http://forums.asp.net/p/1067591/1549641.aspx

Thanks again
