I've gotten my tree-like structure up and working as per (http://drupal.org/node/283503) and I can get the nodes to nest inside each other, what I'm looking to do is have them sorted by taxonomy term and then be able to drag the fields between those terms (up and down the lists and such as well).

For example, I'd like the list to look like:

Taxonomy term 1
- row 1
- row 2
- row 3

Taxonomy tem 2
- row 1
- row 2

and them be able to drag them between the sorted terms as well as re-arrange them within the taxonomy terms. I've looked on the forums, but haven't found anything describing how to do this. If it already exists somewhere, sorry to bother you all.

Thanks.

Haven't tried it yet, but it might be worth checking out the http://drupal.org/project/draggableviews module.

I'm currently using that module, and its working great. I'm looking to figure out how to expand the functions of that module to allow dragging across taxonomy terms. The tree structure seems like its what I'm looking to do, however it seems that you can only set other CCK types to be the "root" terms. So I'm wondering if I need to create CCK types with the same names as the taxonomy terms to be able to do this?

hmm... maybe use the content_taxonomy module to map taxonomy fields to cck fields, then use those in the view.

I've been working on trying to get the content_taxonomy module to do this for a while now, no dice as far as I can tell. Having the taxonomy available as a CCK field in the draggable view allows me to set is as a "grouping field" but that doesn't do much for me. I also tried to create 1 node type per category so that I could attempt to use the root & leaf structure it looks like is somehow built into draggable views, but still I couldn't get it to work.

At this point I'd even be happy with just having two draggable views function on the same page. Right now I have a page set up to sort resume items, and two categories, "Feature Films" & "Short Films" I can get the draggable views to work under the features section and save, but when I drag & reorder the short films section and save I get the error "Draggableviews: Detected order collisions." I have each of these sorting off of a different field ("Features" is using field_weight_1 and "Short Films" is using field_weight_2). I figured this would get rid of any collisions and they could live in harmony, but no such luck. Any guesses?

You've delved far more into this module than i ever have, i'm afraid i'm out of ideas. Did you try creating an issue in the module's issue queue?
