I’m trying to figure out what this sort of thing is called, and eventually how I can create one in a web browser. It looks like this (screenshot of the first app that came to mind):

enter image description here

The specific component/pattern I’m looking for is the two list boxes (“Included Gear” and “Excluded Gear”) that represent inclusion/exclusion of items from a set. I’m not really looking for the WPF name (if there is one) but it might be helpful.

I am looking for the name of this thingy, if there is one, and if you really want to make my day, you can point me toward a jQuery or YUI way of making one of these dealies in a browser.

    I don’t think there’s an “official” name, typically called “dual list” or.. even more commonly known as “the thing where you have two boxes and you can move things in between”.

    Here’s a jQuery Plugin for this: https://github.com/Geodan/DualListBox
