I have this exact same error, it won’t work in Firefox, or IE, here are my specifics:
Firefox V 1.0.7
IE 7.0.5335.5 Beta 2 & 6.0 SP2
Wordpress 2.0.2
Apache V. 1.3 on Red Hat Linux
Errors in Firefox Javascript Console:
Error: Sortable is not defined

I’m having the same issue, i get the four pointed cursor but I can’t drag or drop anything in any browser, the sidebars work properly with the theme and I’m not getting any error, I just can’t edit what shows up dynamically.
Of note, in IE 6.0 I can see the little icons for additional options on some of them, but in firefox and IE 7 I can’t see them at all, and even though i can see them in IE 6.0 clicking on them does nothing.
Thanks! I tried the updated widgets.php for IIS fix I found in another thread that didn’t help at all though.
I’m getting this same issue… and I can’t find the solution…
Make sure you move the scriptaculous folder into /wp-includes/js/. Despite what the documentation says, it did not work for me until I put that folder in the right place.
Forget the below, I followed what you said and it worked.
Thanks!
Thanks for the response Otto.
I still get
Error: Sortable is not defined
Source File: myurl/wp-admin/themes.php?page=widgets/widgets.php
Line: 450
which is
<script type="text/javascript">
// <![CDATA[
Sortable.create("palette",
{dropOnEmpty:true,containment:["palette","sidebar-1"],handle:'handle',constraint:false,onUpdate:updateAll,format:/^widgetprefix-(.*)$/});
Sortable.create("sidebar-1",
{dropOnEmpty:true,containment:["palette","sidebar-1"],handle:'handle',constraint:false,onUpdate:updateAll,format:/^widgetprefix-(.*)$/});
// ]]>
</script>
