This is a fundamental problem -- are you changing the IDs of the list
in order to keep the order correct? IDs are once-in-a-lifetime things,
they should never change, unless you want your hair to stop growing.
Make a new column in your database just to hold the current sort order.
table "widgets":
id int(11) auto-increment, primary key
name varchar(255)
price decimal (8,2)
description text
position int(11)
updated_at datetime
To draw your list, SELECT * FROM widgets ORDER BY position ASC.
