Rails - Apr 2008 - Re: unpopulated in_place_editor_field not working [UPDATED] Easier, cleaner workaround!

I''m running Rails 2.2, and have spent waaaay too long unsuccessfully
trying
to get the suggestion at
http://www.akuaku.org/archives/2006/08/in_place_editor_1.shtml
  to work for me. I also considered trying a few other suggestions I found,
but they all felt kludgy.

Then a CSS lightbulb went off over my head! I added this to the top of the
template where I needed a bunch of these blank in_place_editor_fields to
work:

<style type="text/css" media="screen">
    .in_place_editor_field:after {
        content: url(/images/edit_entry_12.png)
    }
</style>

WOOOHOOO! It totally works, and doesn''t look too gross.
