Drag and drop items in plain html page

Hello,

Am looking for a tool / open source framework that could do the following.

A plain html page, with some toolbox at the border of the page where the tool box contains individual tool that represents operation like "extend fleet", "add drives", "backtrack" or something of that sort.

Now, I should be able to drag and drop the tools from the toolbox into the main view of the html page. Later, I will bind some logic to each of the tool that was dragged and dropped.

To give more insights about that, something similar to whats done in a VB page but there has to be a software installed at the clients desktop. Am looking for a light weight component just a plain html page to do this and necessarily no software at clients end.

I believe that this is something doable. Smilie

Are you aware of anything that does this and exist now ?

If not, how can I go about building that ? Am a newbie in "presentations" and "displays"

Thanks for your help in advance Smilie
