Overview

Added reordering functionality to the frontend newsletter generator interface, allowing users to easily reorder events, media articles, and opportunities using "Move Up ↑" and "Move Down ↓" buttons before generating the newsletter.

Changes

Implemented reordering controls in frontend/index.html:

  1. Added CSS styles for the reorder button container and individual move buttons with hover effects
  2. Created createReorderButtons() function that generates a pair of Move Up/Move Down buttons with DOM manipulation logic
  3. Updated form creation functions (addEventForm(), addArticleForm(), addOpportunityForm()) to include the reorder buttons for each item

How It Works

  • Move Up: Moves the current item above the previous item in the list
  • Move Down: Moves the current item below the next item in the list
  • The order is automatically preserved when collecting data for newsletter generation, as items are read in DOM order

Benefits

  • Simple and intuitive UI with clear visual feedback
  • Consistent behavior across all three sections (Events, Media Articles, Opportunities)
  • Minimal code changes (57 lines added to a single file)
