The demos provided don''t work in Safari, it''s over 350KB of
(mostly)
obfuscated code and hence impossible to debug or fix.

Sorry, no sale.

Hi!

I''ve updated controls.js a little, so now InPlaceEditor has a new
option - veIsOn. If you set it to true, the editor will be turned on
by default. Download controls (2).js (http://rubyonrails-
spinoffs.googlegroups.com/web/controls%20%282%29.js), replace old one
with it, add "veIsOn: true" to your InPlaceEditor object
initialisation and the job is done :)

I highly recommend you develop this as an extension to IPE rather than
modifying an SAU library file.<br>
I.e. create a new class with it''s own initialize function,
Object.extend it with IPE, call IPE''s initialize, add your features to
it, etc...<br>
<br>
Modifying a library file kills maintainability..<br>

You are right, Colin, I''ll try to create something like that. I am
just not much into javascript''s object model and it would take some
time to make myself comfortable with it :)

This works, but I really wonder if it is the proper way.. It seems like 
there are two objects being created and only one is being returned so 
the user really doesn''t have access to the second one.

var Ajax.ExtendedInPlaceEditor = Class.create();
Object.extend(Ajax.ExtendedInPlaceEditor .prototype, 
Ajax.InPlaceEditor.prototype);
Object.extend(Ajax.ExtendedInPlaceEditor .prototype, {
    initialize: function(element, url, options) {
        Object.extend(new Ajax.InPlaceEditor(element, url, Object.extend({
            newOption: false,
            overriddenOption: true,
        }, options || {})), this);
        //more initialization if necessary
    },
    createEditField: function() {
    ...
    }
});

Maybe the better way would be to save the original initialize function 
under a different name before calling the second Object.extend and then 
calling it inside the new initialize? However, if this wouldn''t play 
well with multiple inheritance if you always used the same name for the 
old initialize.. Anyone have a better way to extend a Prototype class 
that let''s you call the original initialize function?

Unfortunately I''ve found every time I need to add features to IPE I 
always have to overwrite createEditField or some other function, but a 
lot of the code is copied. It really needs more "hooks" implemented so
that you can add functionality simply by passing functions in the 
options or extending the prototype with new functions. For example, an 
onCreateEditField that is called after createEditField would let you do 
stuff like attach a popup calendar or WYSIWYG editor without overriding 
anything and without any code redundancy.
