Hi there, I’m creating a back end system where the user is able to click on a category and then see two lists. One list is the list of artworks assigned to that category. The other list is a complete list of all the artworks that this user owns (minus those already in the category). I’m looking for some online help that shows you how to allow those list items to be dragged between each list and also re-ordered within each list (2 seperate things yet i need to do them both). I’ve done a lot of searching but haven’t come across anything that really helps, plus I’m finding the doco on how to implement the scriptaculous functions quite sparse for a beginner 🙂 Any helps would be greatly appreciated. I’ve got to the stage where I can generate the two static lists but that’s about it 🙂 Cheers, Brendon M. ---
