 There are plenty of solutions to display data from databases in table grids that allow the user to according to the values a given column.

This package provides a solution to different problem, which is the need that certain applications have to let their users sort data to their own criteria.

The package provides an elegant user interface that lets users drag the entries of the listed database records and drop them in whatever position the users want. The class uses AJAX to commit the sorting changes without reloading the current page.

Detailed description

This class can be used to display MySQL database table records in an HTML table that can be sorted by dragging rows.

The class sends AJAX requests to send changes of the table elements to the server so the changes can be stored in the MySQL table without having to reload the page.
