proceed about it, Client is unwilling to go with DHTML Solution, wants some
other way to accomplish it.

Hi Vai2000,

What about javascript? You can get the same effect by changing the
coordinates of elements with onmousedrag event. But you might get flickers
etc. If you are looking for a component that uses only javascript and no
DHTML, I came across this one, might help;

Hope this helps,

HTML +/- JavaScript +/- CSS = DHTML. If you want drag /n drop functionality,
you need JavaScript + HTML (DHTML).

Thank ya all, I am overwhelmed with the responses! I will start educating
the client that the soln is unachievable without DHTML and proceed
thereafter.

How about a Flash component or Java applet?

Are you SURE? What, actually, is the bigger issue that needs to be resolves.

Then the client says the above and then says 'but without DHTML' I think
that the client isn't actually fully defining the actual problem yet.

FYI, besides javascript, you could use a Java Applet or a Flash interface.
Though both would likely be overkill and alot more work. ;o)
