Hi all,
I'm currently working on a web application that requires Persons to be
added/removed to/from a UserGroup. What I have in mind is much like the
Palette component, but with added functionality:
a) a left hand list with all unselected Persons , a right hand list with
selected Persons, and buttons to move Persons from left to right and
vice versa, supporting Ctrl/Shift+click behavior to make selections.
b) each item in the list shows firstName and lastName, as tabular data.
c) up/down sorting behavior on each property that is displayed (in this
case: firstName and lastName), for both lists.
a) is basically Palette. But b) does not go well with Palette, since the
<option> tag in Palette is not allowed (w3c) to take any additional html
such as <tr> and <td>. To display tabular data, I could use a DataView,
which would work nicely with c) using OrderByBorders. But alas: DataView
does not support the Ctrl/Shift+click behavior that I need.
As they say: pictures say more then 1000 words. So I'll skip the other
800 or so words and attach a screenshot of what I'd like to make :) The
image contains some Dutch text, which I'll gladly translate if necessary.
My actual questions:
- Has anyone tried this before, either successful or unsuccessful?
- Which components would you use to create something that does all this?
- If this combination of functionality seems impossible to merge into
one component, which functionality would you drop to create "the next
best thing"?
Thanks in advance,
Rommert de Bruijn
