After updating to Firefox 12, Tab Drag Re-ordering not working anymore.?
After updating from Firefox 11 to 12, i learned that the tab re-ordering using drag is not working anymore, i tried a fresh reinstall, i am avoiding , uninstalling and then reinstalling, because i have lots of tabs open, which i do not want to lose, is there a fix for this..?

By "Tab Drag Re-ordering" you mean the feature where you can click and hold on a tab, and drag it to a different position on the tab bar, new window, etc. correct?
If that is so, then it sounds like you most likely have an extension that is causing the issue. Try to start Firefox in Safe mode. This mode disables all extensions, user customizations, hardware acceleration, etc. temporarily for diagnostic and troubleshooting. If Firefox works fine in Safe Mode, then this is likely an add-on issue. Restart Firefox in normal mode, then type "About:addons" (without the quotes) in the address bar. Disable your extensions one by one, restarting Firefox between each one, until you find the trouble maker.
