    Hey guys, im rattled about how to go about this, i just dont know what method to use and what method will be best for usability.

    Basically i want visitors to create their own ordered top 10 list from a set list of a few hundred items (recieved from a Db)

    E.g they will create their own top 10 countries. So on the page there will be a list of all the countries & then somehow they would select 10 and form a top 10 list which i could then submit to a Db.

    Anybody got any ideas? The best i can think of is a list box then 10 blank text boxes, which will have up and down arrows next to them for them to order. Somehow i could code this so the user selects options from the list box into these 10 blank text boxes and changes the order.

    P.S If anybody is confident i would be willing to hire.:)

    Being 100+ items you could split the process in two pages: first let the user pick 10 of them (with checkboxes) and on the second page just order them (using arrows or drag & drop if you want to make it fancy). Adding flags would make it even more user friendly :)
