We use a plugin for jQuery called Interface
Elements
and here is a demo of the re-ordering elements on a
page
.

Attached is a patch file for the tab-column/xhtml-theme/xhtml-theme.xsl, I
reference the jquery.js and interface.js from {$mediaPath}/common/jquery/,
so you will need to place those two files in that directory. I may have
hacked up the patch, had to remove some other stuff not related to
drag-and-drop, hopefully it works. This patch is for uPortal 2.6.1.

Hi Parker,

Would you guys be willing to share the portlet re-ordering code you wrote? I
haven't yet ironed out all the portlet drag and drop functionality, so it
would be pretty useful in finishing the up3 theme!  The screenshot you sent
looks very nice :)

Jen,

Wow, interesting news! If you're happy with your jQuery porting  
efforts so far, I say +1.


I by no means think this is a necessary switch--Fluid plays nice with  
other toolkits--but if you're as happy with jQuery as we have been for  
our Fluid work, it makes sense to me. We'll be working with the jQuery  
community to ensure their UI library is made accessible, too!


Eli Cochran and I will be covering how to use jQuery in our Fearless  
JavaScript workshop at the JA-SIG conference.

Hi all,

I'd like to propose that we migrate from dojo to jQuery as of

performing this migration will prevent us from needing to include  
two javascript toolkits in the new uPortal 3.0 theme.


Unless anyone has any objections, I'd like to try and check a  
working implementation into the up3theme branch sometime in the next  
day or two.

Alignment with what Fluid is using is compelling.

+1  Sounds like a good idea.  Within our own portlet development we have 
been very happy with jQuery and definitely recommend its use.

jQuery seems to be lighter weight, easier to use, and much faster.  jQuery
is also being used by the fluid reorderer, so performing this migration will
prevent us from needing to include two javascript toolkits in the new
uPortal 3.0 theme.

Unless anyone has any objections, I'd like to try and check a working
