Rails spinoffs - Jul 2007 - InPlace[Collection]Editor rewrite: it's in trunk!

Hi all,

For those of you who don''t follow Thomas Fuch''s blog, know
that a
complete rewrite of InPlaceEditor / InPlaceCollectionEditor just made it
into the trunk.

You''ll find all the juicy details on Thomas'' post:

http://mir.aculo.us/2007/7/17/in-place-editing-the-summer-2007-rewrite

Do note that this is my rewrite, so if you find bugs etc., don''t go
yelling at Thomas: I''m the one to blame!

We''ve seen a striking increase of posts here about IPE, and I can only
hope you''ll find the new version great.  A lot of you monkeypatched
your
IPE to fit your needs, and this monkeypatching may very well need to be
ported over to the new release before you can use it confidently.  As
always: test like crazy!

Cheers,

Glad to finally see the rewrite... good work.

Looking at the code, I see no way to customize the created input control.

For example, I''d like to be able to set the maxlength attribute on the
input control.  Could a callback be added so that once the control is
created, other attributes, or performing further customization could
be done?

Something like this...

if (this.options.submitOnBlur)
  fld.onblur = this._boundSubmitHandler;

+if (this.options.customizeEditField)
+  this.options.customizeEditField(fld);

this._controls.editor = fld;

Thanks,
Andrew

I was working on this just before you posted your message here.  I
wrote a plugin for rails to replace the in_place_editor method so that
it accept all Ajax.InPlaceEditor options, so it will work with this
new rewrite.

It can be found here...
http://agilewebdevelopment.com/plugins/improved_in_place_editor

I just posted it, so feedback is welcome.
