Here's a potentially even simpler way to do this:

I've attached the example zip just in case the site goes away at some point.

There's a generic javascript library to do this kinda stuff at the url I'd mentioned as an example..

Indeed, that would be *very* slick. And the things Kevin mentions too, and more. I'd love to work on this stuff but I just don't have the time (unless someone hires Zend to do it <g>). Help getting started here would be great.

Would indeed be keen.  I'd love to see it in the Portal layout code too, instead of having to use arrows to move blocks around.  And we had a feature request today from a user, who wanted to drag and drop events that were rescheduled on her calendar, from one time slot to the next.  And with IMP folders.  And adding email addresses to a contact list, without having to search for them one by one..

I'm totally ignorant of how to implement DND in a web environment, how the use of Javascript and CSS scales.  But the idea is nice :)

It'd be cool if you could pick ingo rules up and drag them into new positions on the list, rather than using the up and down arrows.

Examples of what I mean can be found at:
