Do you really need to do it that way? That will call the server every
time a button is clicked. You might want to do the list editing on the
client side, then have a Save button that sends the list to the server.

So the Add button works, but the Remove button does not? You should be
able to do both the same way -- after all, the only difference is that
Add moves things from list 1 to list 2, while Remove does likewise from
list 2 to list 1.

I am not sure what your problem is. Please provide more detail and
code.
