Yeah, I just have to figure out why my columns aren't setting their height
when I use percentages, they work fine when I use pixels.. this is
definitely css related- i know that in order to use %, the parent container
must have a fixed or percentage height, recursively back to body.

Updating to the server is almost working, it's a little more complex than
just an Ajax.Request since you need to determine which was the destination
div, and the onUpdate fires once for each container.
I did this by caching the order in an attribute and comparing it to the new
order. I'll post this code up shortly.

My biggest issue at present is that in order to get the placeholder to work,
I had to use a modified version of scripty, and I can't find any
documentation on the guys page about what he actually changed to enable it
to work.
He seems to put up new versions in sync with scripty, but it's a pain.

That would be great, and yes that's what i'm trying to do.
Check out iGoogle personalised homepage to see what i'm basically
replicating in my own project.
It's all basically working now, albiet with a modified scripty and a few
small bugs..
