More help on tables please

[zzfive03]

Lets say I have a table displaying a list of database items. Would it be possible for me to have an up/down button that would move the selected table. (kind of like putting the items in a priority)?

you might be able to use a "LIST" box an have the user click an item.
Then re-shuffle the items in the list box so its first.

this is a rough idea
<p><select size=&quot;5&quot; name=&quot;List1&quot; tabindex=&quot;est5&quot;>
<option>test1</option>
<option>test2</option>
<option selected>test3</option>
<option>test4</option>
<option>test5</option>
<option>test6</option>
<option>test7</option>
</select>

A list box is actually a Drop down with a larger size (5 in our case)
the “size” parameter is how many rows show in the list
In this example Option 3 is the default selection if needed.

To find out which item is picked.
<%
Sub List1_onchange
Set theForm = document.FrontPage_Form1

If (theForm.List1.selectedindex = 1) then
‘ first item in list selected
ElseIf (theForm. List1.selectedindex = 3) then
‘ third item in list selected
Else

End if
End sub
%>
