I recently discovered Jquery and am quite excited about its capabilities.
 I'm working on a sophisticated online psychological assessment tool using
Personal Construct Theory (go here:
http://www.warpraptor.com/irannewuser.html. to see an example of its use in
political polling using the 2009 Iranian Presidential debacle (and get links
to learn more about Personal Construct Theory).
What I'm trying to accomplish is to place three circles (images) in a
rectangular box and allow a user to move each of the circles anywhere in
this rectangular box--but be locked within the box--occupying about 70% of
the screen.  I want to capture the amount of time each circle is selected
(cumulative if they are selected multiple times) and the total distance each
is moved--no matter how they zig and zag or circle.  I want to be able to
calculate the distances between the center of each circle and the centers of
the other two when they all have been moved where the user wants to place
them finally (actually, I would really like to capture the distances
continuously from the time a user starts until the user clicks finished, but
I'll add this in version 2).  I have downloaded and tested  wz_dragdrop (
http://www.walterzorn.com/dragdrop/dragdrop_e.htm), but I have not yet
gotten it to work correctly.  But now I think Jquery is a better bet.   I
want the circles to be fairly small but big enough to contain a recognizable
image of a human face.  I also want them to be perfect circles including the
background.  I have not been able to figure out to create an image with a
perfectly circular background.  Circular images are no problem.  The closest
I have come to circular backgrounds is squares with rounded edges.  If you
come across something that might help with any of these please let me know
