Hi, you need to change the titles, try this on tiddlywiki.com

*put this in a new tiddler and save:*

define go-ahead()
<$action-setfield $tiddler="test tiddler" $field="text" 
$value="""$(dropText)$"""/>
\end
\define drop-actions()
<$set name="dropText" value={{$(actionTiddler)$}}><<
go-ahead>></$set>
\end

<$droppable actions="""<<drop-actions>>""">
drop stuff here
</$droppable>

*then put this in a new tiddler and save*

<$draggable tiddler="HelloThere">
grab me and drag me into the drobbable area
</$draggable>

*then grab the "*grab me and drag me into the drobbable area" *and drag 
into onto "*drop stuff here"

then look under recent for the tiddler "test tiddler"

it can be a viewtemplate, I also think that's better

I don't know if the textarea itself can be made a droppable, we'd need to 
test.. but I thought about replacing the textarea with such a 
droppable-table by the click of a button

yes, it could be done with the select-widget, but also the tag-pill would 
work , we just clone the TagTemplate and edit it to our needs

the table is just for visual positioning and ordering of the dragged 
tag-pills or select-widgets, so that they can be shown side-by-side and can 
be rearranged by dragging from one table-cell to another, gives visual 
feedback
