How can I create music playlist using multiple(x3) tables with drag, drop, sortable functionality?

Hi All,

A newbie to DataTables, but am keen to implement on its core functionalities as I think its really extensible.

I'm trying to integrate a Music Playlist Creator using 3 tables into my Rails application.

Table 1 - Songs, music, cuts
Table 2 - Jingles, commercials
Table 3 - Blank Playlist

My aim is to drag and drop the contents from Tables 1 + 2 into the Blank Playlist table. I have been experimenting with jQuery UI but doesn't have the functionality I need.

The closest example I can find is: http://codepen.io/esironal/pen/britv although this doesn't have all the bells and whistles like DataTables, e.g. sorting, search etc and only uses 2 tables.

Would be great to hear if anyone has ideas or solutions to point me in the right direction. FYI, am using Bootstrap 3 if that makes any difference whatsoever to the responsiveness/styling.

Look forward to hearing from anyone - Many thanks!
