sortable_element :onUpdate

First time poster - hope I’ve done sufficient homework to get more than an rtfm:

In my view, I have a

    list wherein each list element is identified with an id, thusly:

      <% for task in @tasks %>
    • <%= task.Description %>
      • <% end %>

    Next I have a sortable that is intended to make a callback after things are updated:

    <%= sortable_element :todoHandle, :handle => ‘handle’ , :containment => [‘newHandle’,‘todoHandle’,‘doneHandle’,‘trashHandle’],

    :dropOnEmpty => true, :onUpdate => ??? %>

    What I would like to understand is how to define an action which may be called from onUpdate in order to resequence the tasks (in the database).

    Most grateful for clues.

    Thanks,

    Marc
