[Dojo-interest] dnd with one extra node

[Eugene Lazutkin]

Hmm, I think this is a bug then. Please file a defect ticket, so we
don't forget.

For now either try to instantiate a source programmatically, or override
a startup() method. Something like that should do the trick:

<div dojoType="dojo.dnd.Source" jsId="c1">
  ...
  <div id="parent">
    ...
  </div>
  ...
  <script type="dojo/method" event="startup">
    // normal processing
    this.inherited("startup", arguments);
    // set up our parent
    this.parent = dojo.byId("parent");
  </script>
</div>

In general you can set up "parent" at any time => you can do it in
dojo.addOnLoad(), or at any other suitable event:

dojo.ready(function(){
  // "c1" is declared as jsId, "parent" is a node id
  c1.parent = dojo.byId("parent");
});
