I have just tried it and I keep seeing the list in the url. It doesn't seem to submit it anywhere. I have the following form setup:
<form action="test.cfm" method="post" name="tform" onsubmit="writeList();">
<input type="hidden" name="hidden_list">
<p><select name="reOrderMe" size="5">
<option value="1">First</option>
<option value="2">Second</option>
<option value="3">Third</option>
<option value="4">Fourth</option></select></p>
<p><input type="button" value="up" onclick="moveEm('up','reOrderMe');"><br>
<input type="button" value="down" onclick="moveEm('down','reOrderMe');"></p>
<p><input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit"></p>
</form>
What have I missed? the url reads: test.cfm?hidden_list=3%2C1%2C4%2C2%2C&reOrderMe=2&Submit=Submit
How do I get this to submit?
Cheers
Dave

Yep,
try the script below...Basically the original script only passes the text, so you need to pass the values as well, you also need to pass the values via a hidden form field by triggering writeList() via an onsubmit="writeList();"
HTH

<script type="text/javascript"> <!--
function moveEm(direction,listname) {
if (listname == 'reOrderMe') { dfr = document.forms[0].reOrderMe; } 9 boxLen = dfr.length; currentItem = dfr.selectedIndex;
if ((direction == 'up') && (currentItem > 0)) {
//reorder the text selText = dfr.options[currentItem].text; swpText = dfr.options[currentItem - 1].text;
// reorder the value selValue = dfr.options[currentItem].value; swpValue = dfr.options[currentItem - 1].value;
//reorder the text dfr.options[currentItem - 1].text = selText; dfr.options[currentItem].text = swpText;
// reorder the value dfr.options[currentItem - 1].value = selValue; dfr.options[currentItem].value = swpValue;
dfr.selectedIndex = currentItem - 1;
// writeList();
} else if ((direction == 'down') && (currentItem < boxLen - 1) && (currentItem != -1)) {
selText = dfr.options[currentItem].text; swpText = dfr.options[currentItem + 1].text;
// reorder the value selValue = dfr.options[currentItem].value; swpValue = dfr.options[currentItem + 1].value;
//reorder the text dfr.options[currentItem + 1].text = selText; dfr.options[currentItem].text = swpText;
//reorder the value dfr.options[currentItem + 1].value = selValue; dfr.options[currentItem].value = swpValue;
dfr.selectedIndex = currentItem + 1;
// writeList();
} else if (currentItem == -1) {
// alert("An item must select before it can be reordered.");
} else {}
}
function writeList() {
alertText = "";
for (i=0;i<boxLen;i++) {
// value does not work as the list is effectively unchanged alertText = alertText + dfr.options[i].value+ ",";
}
//alert(alertText); document.forms[0].hidden_list.value = alertText;
}
//--> </script>

My starting point was this link: http://efficacy.net/experiments/reorder/
I want to be able to reorder a list and then submit these values via a form submission to another page which then inputs the new order into the db.
Is this similar to what you have just done?
Thanks
Dave
