How to rank items on a list
      #22697 - 10/13/05 11:17 PM

I remember using a java applet on a website a few years ago, and I'm hoping that someone knows it's name and how I can get it for my webpage...

For this applet, the user was given a list of 25 football teams. The user could drag teams up and down the list to rank the teams as they desired, and then submit their ranking to the web host.

Does this applet ring any bells? I am brand new to web design (two days of experience) and so I hope I explained it well enough.

Among the basic documentations you have to read, the top priority would be Drag and Drop which is bundled as a part of standard JDK documentation set.

You could also use javascript on the client. This simple codefetch query found this list box shift up/down code example from the book Professional JavaScript for Web Developers
