Reliable script to handle selection/drag-and-drop in a list field?

[Peter Haworth]

Thanks Geoff.

It looks like this is probably not going to work as a behavior for me since
the field I'm using it on includes mouseUp/Down handlers to handle
situations other than drag/drop, but other than that, this is great, thanks
again.
