I am working on an application that includes a screen with a list of
people on the right and a list of groups they can be involved in on the
left. The user can drag-and-drop people from the right to groups on
the left and visa-versa.
I would like to be able to have a quick way for the user to add a new
person in the right-hand list. Preferrably the user could click a
"new" link, a popup or callout would appear and user could enter the
person's name and contact info, click "save" and never leave the screen
through all this. I'm not too concerned about the AJAX code to
dynamically update the list of people - I'll be using prototype.js for
that.
I'm simply looking for a primer on creating that callout code. Does
anyone know of a good starting place?
Thanks,
Barry
