I hope to find some plugin or existing code to implement the following feature because it is very common on the net. In my application, each user has a list of favorite books. After login, each user should be able to rank this list of books. Ideally, the user is presented with his list. He then can drag and drop to rank the books in the list and click submit to save the new rankings. Or he can just type in the numeral ranking next to each book. I remember that Netflix allows its users to rank their list of movies in this fashion. Can you point me to some plug-in, existing code or suggest how I can implement this? I think this feature has been implemented many times before. I don''t want to reinvent the wheel.

I discovered this recipe which seems to do what I want: http://media.pragprog.com/titles/fr_rr/Sortable.pdf . I''ll try it out. If anybody knows of a better way, please let me know. Thanks.

Remember to provide an alternative interface for users without JS, though.
