I jave an ASP app that interfaces with an Access db and part of it displays thumbnail images sorted in a different order such as by Image Name , Title, etc.

We now have a need to be able to sort on a custom order. Rather than just having a display order field with a number of the order to be displayed I'd like to be able to have the thumbnails displayed in a window and then select an image and then be able to click on a placeholder or something between other images and move the selected image to that location. Then we would need to be able to save the new order in the database.

Has anyone seen some code that would do this or know of the best way to handle it?

Thanks,

Stephen

wha tyou 'd need to do is, find a drag and drop script from these forums or over the internet(there are allots of them out there), then you will have to make sure that user clicks a button of sort at asome stage when you send a request to database application,appending current cords for the images for db update.

I've seen some drag and drop scripts that let you move images around on the screen but how would you send the new sequence to the server to be saved in the database?
