Advice on drag and drop UI?

[jremio]

Hi there,

I would like to implement a web based UI that allows people to drag and drop "chairs" and "tables" onto a floor layout (grids) and save it to their profile by storing in the database. I am wondering how do I start doing this? I am using vb.net with ajax control toolkit. Are these enough? Thank you for your advice.

Is this for a windows.application or a web.based application?
If windows.based, see if this helps.

If it's web based, my referenced solution is that you will have to create a .css and possibly some .js(JavaScript) code to have it all work with vb.net.

You will need some code as this also:

.The above link's code does not work in FireFox, though it should be similar to what you will need for your projects.
