Drag and Drop Panel

with in the Panel to get the outer structure, and another table with in that for adding the contents with in the table. If this is not done then user can drag the Panel by clicking any clicking anywhere in the panel. This can be altered by the following line in the CS file.

The 1st parentElement selects the and 2nd parentElement selects the and 3rd parentElement selects the and 4th parentElement selects the which is rendered by Panel. You can also change the class "modhead" of the which is used drag the panel.

In order to remember the position of each panel the X and Y coordinates it has as to be saved once the user has moved panel from one position to another to the database.

I have set the ConnectionString in the web.Config. The connection is created and opened in the constructor. On mouseup I have updated the X and Y position with PanelId and UserId to the database.

The table structure:UserID  Varchar(50)PanelID Varchar(50)X         IntY         Int

It is possible to set the X and Y coordinates for the panel only in the CreateChildControls().

I have attached the Style.css which I got from My MSN website. You can add anything to this panel both in aspx page as well as in codebehind page as usual, and make them draggable in webpage.

I have hardcoded Draggable property to true because as defult when ever the page loads I have given draggable feature to all the panels as MY MSN.  

STEPS TO USE THE CONTROL:1. Extract the contents the ZIP file to a virtual directory.2. Copy the Dll to the Bin directory.3. Create the table "TEST" with the structure mentioned above.4. Change the ConnectionString in the web.Config file.5. Login with any username and password (both should be same ex: USER=test PASSWORD=test)6. Move the panels anywhere in the page.7. Logout and Login with the same username and password to see the customization.

Users can also include a PageId in the table and use the control throughout the project.
