Why am I getting a jQuery 'ui.element is undefined' error?

I have the following:

$('#widgets ul').sortable(
{
  connectWith: ['#widgets ul'],
  opacity: 0.7,
  start: function(e, ui) {
    fromWidgetPosition = ui.item.prevAll().length + 1;
    fromRowId = ui.element.attr('id');

I just upgraded jQuery from 1.2.6 to 1.3.2, and I also upgraded the jQuery UI library to the latest version.

The 'element' got removed in newer jQuery UI versions, see this bug report and the corresponding source changeset.

According to those, you should use $(this) instead:

fromRowId = $(this).attr('id');
