It's really easy to do with Draggables and Droppables of script.aculo.us
I have updated PWC-OS (http://prototype-window.xilinus.com/PWC-OS/
only). You will see a little bone on the top left of the screen and I
added a dropped zone on each windows.
You can drag and drop this little bone on the desktop anywhere you
want and also drop it in windows drop zone.
It's less than 10 lines of code. You can use droppables containment
options if you want to restrict droppables area.
I also use cookies to store window size and position.

PS: If you have something to do that PWC does not do, my advice is:
do not modify PWC code, extend it or ask on the ML if someone has
done it before or if someone has any ideas. It will save you a lot of
time.

with PWC without heavy code modification (draggin from one window

Ok now thete there is a real WebOS sample you got me active in the

I know these are not Very difficult to code for a JS but I am a php
guy so bear with me
here are a few thoughts that has been running inside my brain and I
have not been unable to come to any conclusion with so many ways to
do it. I thought maybe a little debating with fellow programmers
would help
All of this is in relation to a WEB OS type installation only
[1]
Now we need a Background DESKTOP that is active ie has icons
shortcuts etc.
I can decide , wether I should make a DIVin main page or make a
pwc window with a theme such that it can not be brought to front
.
[2]
I need to be able to drag icons around in Background, havent been
able to manage a drag drop using prototype any one Managed that
[3]
I need to be able to drag icons from one wondow to another one
(its actually 3 events Source Window Icon Starts to move-
>backgroundwindow icon moves->target window accepts the icon) I
have seen them in the old library which I keep mentioning.
Any comments or leads to a sample online would be much appriciated
