C# .NET - Drag and drop operations on a web form

Asked By Pranay on 02-Apr-13 03:43 PM
I have a requirement where I need to provide my web application with drag and drop functionality such as moving files from one folder to another etc. (Something we see on windows applications) and update the database accordingly. I'm looking for a tutorial or sample project or anything that might help me learn about the same.
Thanks for your help and support.

The specific terms you want to search for are:

javascript drag drop

The closest article on this site (that I can think of) that involves moving objects around is this old slider control.

You'll probably want to look at jquery ui to get the kind of UI effects I'm sure you are after.
