Dear All,
I am not so clear about jQuery actually what is it and how it function and different from Ajax? Can some one help me clarify? Now I required a functionality where I can drag and drop with the backend mysql capability to update the db. What will be the best solution in my case? Thank you.

jquere is a library, whick makes it easier to write javascript code. I don't we can compare AJAX and jquery because they are different things. But I can say jquery has nice functions do make AJAX calls.

Have not tried anything with drag and drop, but when you enter in google you can quickly find, I guess this is a good example

Dear Speed,
Thank you for your explanation. So when you say jquery is a library is it a library written by individual or some bodies? Then I notice at some place there is jQuery and jQuery GUI. So is these library are prebuild and just for us to use is it? Any standard to follow?

I think there is a team who writes that library.

Don' know what is GUI, maybe other can explain. But just search for some jquery turorials for beginners and you will understand what you want I guess.

jQuery UI defines visual widgets for you to use, like a calendar. Theming is built into this, so can be easily modified to suit your needs.

Dear All,
Thank you for the help I will go and learn more and get back here.
