Help with a form

[crystalb24]

I am trying to create a form in the following scenario -

I have a list of several individual checklists. When a user selects one, and pop-up window appears that allows them to customize that that specific checklist, reordering items mainly.

I have the pop-up window feature working, but what I can't figure out is how to set up the reordering feature. What I'd like is to have textareas available next to the individual items on the checklist that the user can number in the order that they would like them to be, click a button and have the list refresh into the order they have indicated. (A good example of this, and the first one that pops to mind is the BlockbusterOnline > Manage your Q screen where you can reorder the movies on your list, click update and the page refreshes with the movies in the new order).

Anyone know how to do this?

How do you want the ordering to be?

Like this:

Value  | Pos
------------
Item 1 | 3
Item 2 | 2
Item 3 | 1

becomes

Value  | Pos
------------
Item 3 | 
Item 2 | 
Item 1 |

Can you show in this format?

Here's the idea:

On the main page

<script language="javascript">
function Start(page) {
OpenWin = this.open(page, "CtrlWindow", "resizable=yes");
}
</script>

<a href="javascript:Start('checklist1.htm')";><input type="checkbox" name="checkbox4"></a>Checklist 1
<br>
<a href="javascript:Start('checklist2.htm')";><input type="checkbox" name="checkbox4"></a>Checklist 2

checklist1.htm

Item 1
     subitem 1
     subitem 2
Item 2
     subitem 1
     subitem 2
Item 3
     subitem 1
     subitem 2
Item 4
     subitem 1
     subitem 2
Item 5
     subitem 1
     subitem 2

All of the items on the subsequent (checklist1.htm, checklist2.htm) pages would be orderable and/or deleteable to create a custom checklist from the choices.

I'd also like to include a button on the bottom of the pop-up page to save the checklist to the database file, close the pop-up window and update the main page to reflect the newly created checklist in the correct order.
