Rails spinoffs - Feb 2006 - InPlaceEditor on an empty div

Hi,

I am wondering what the trick is to use InPlaceEditor on an emtpy div.

I have a set up where one div contains a question, and next to it is  
an emtpy div which should be used for InPlaceEditor. The user clicks  
on a button "answer" and that activates the InPlaceEditor in the  
appropriate div.

This doesn''t work, however. The div which should use InPlaceEditor  
must contain some text. Is there a way around this?

Thank you in advance.

sorry about that -- the "trick" is, of course, to use externalControl
