hi,
i need a web based html form editor.

i tries wysiwng editors but they dont allow me to drag elements wherever i want.

I'm not aware of anything that exists similar to that open-source. There are some applications that have that functionality (MailBuild comes to mind right away (http://vimeo.com/1336638)). But, I've not seen any open-sourced version of these types of scripts.

A look at the jQuery UI branch (http://ui.jquery.com/)might help you out a little bit to get started with custom code.

To further my recommendation of the jQuery UI branch to accomplish this, check this (http://ui.jquery.com/repository/real-world/layout/) out. It's an example posted on the UI branch's demo section. It looks almost exactly like what you want. Of course, you'll want some back-end way to save the information here but front-end wise, you could adapt it.

That's a neat Javascript application.
