Looks like I have some updating to do in the HOWTO, thanks for reminding me.

It's pretty simple. You turn panning on with "dragon()" For example:
    document.jBox.dragon();
This turns box drawing or line drawing off (if either were currently on) 
When the user drags the mouse within the applet map area, the image is 
dragged (panned) and appropriate coordinates are provided to a mapserver 
submit.
