If you aren't fond of doing postbacks, you will need to become a superstar at
JavaScript. Once you learn how to use it, your whole design process will
change!
Anyways, can you send me a sample of what kind of html is generated by your
control?
Basically, you will need to assign an id to each element that you want to
move. Then, you will need JavaScript event handlers for the mouse down event
and mouse up event so that you can capture which control was clicked on and
where it was dragged to. Then, you will have to rewrite the html in the new
order.
Huge task huh? Look at the ComponentOne and Infragistics tools or R.A.D.
they all have very advanced client side code.
If cost is an issue, find a control in the above companies toolset that you
like and search google for a cheap/free version?

It's possible to move them on the client using JavaScript.
Any suggestions how? Javascript isn't my strong point ;-(
My question is, what is rendered out to the client? If it is just random
html, it might be pretty difficult.
Not sure what you mean here. The data in the repeater is just text, not
HTML.
A 3rd party control would have a more sophisticated JavaScript Object
Notation model for capturing, moving, editing specific client side items.
Do you know of one?
Thanks for the reply.
