[css-d] Movable content

2008-05-15 Thread Andrew Doades
Not sure if this is a css question or now but I can not think of 
anywhere else to look...

On the new www.bbc.co.uk website and igoogle you have the ability to 
move the objects around, anyone know how the heck I do that?

Cheers,
Andrew

Hi Andrew,

This is not actually CSS, though CSS is certainly implemented for the look and 
feel. Aside from some pseudo-element styling, moving elements on the fly is not 
possible with CSS (that I'm aware of).

The BBC folks (and similar sites) are using javascript. In BBC's case, JQuery 
is 
used to accomplish the drag-and-drop functions (as well as others, no doubt).

More information about JQuery can be found here:

Hope it helps!
