Rails - Jul 2006 - Inplace editor oddity

I''m having issues handling output of a inplace editor function.  When
the
controller action is successful, it returns the new value that populates the
DIV and all is well.  When it fails, it sends a js alert to the user.  The
problem is, after it sends the alert (and the user clicks OK) it then spits
back the try/catch javascript code which gets inserted into the DIV. 
I''ve
tried returning false but it doesn''t do any good.  I also
can''t render
:nothing => true because I get a ''double render error''
Any thoughts?

#in keyword_controller.rb
def set_bid
    params[:value].gsub!(/[^\d\.]/, '''')
    if params[:value].to_f == 0.0
      render :update do |page|
        page.alert(''You must enter a dollar amount, e.g. 23.22,
0.23'')
      end
      return false
    end

    @link = KeywordLink.find(params[:id])
    previous = @link.max_bid
    @link.max_bid = params[:value]
    @link.max_bid = previous unless @link.save
    render :text => help.number_to_currency(@link.max_bid)
  end

#in view
<%= in_place_editor ''bid_'' + keyword.id.to_s,
                      :url => { :controller =>
''keyword'', :action =>
''set_bid'', :id => keyword.keyword_link.id } -%>


thanks,
