[OSCOM] drag-n-drop solutions for ajax

Hi Kit,

There are various generic solutions for drag-n-drop out there for javascript. A
couple of useful ones I've used are Walter Zorn's library 

http://www.walterzorn.com/dragdrop/dragdrop_e.htm

and Mike Foster's 'x' library

http://www.cross-browser.com/toys/

(he describes it as his 'toys', but I've used them in heavy-duty ajax apps for
Tier-1 banks! Highly recommended for wrapping up lots of cross-browser complexity
in a simple way).

Hope that helps,

Dave
