@LOL: Hm, difficult to say what the problem is. Are there any errors shown in the JavaScript console of your browser? And did you check with a tool like Firebug whether there is a request made?

Hope this helps!

@Nick: The SQL call is not necessary. You can reset the text field in your “onerror” callback function like:

onerror : function(settings, original, xhr) {
    original.reset();
}

I hope this answers your question.

@cakebaker: that was it, I had a spelling error. Thought I double checked that. Thanks.

Another question that was touched above a little bit, how is error handling accomplished? I am doing data validation, etc, but when there is an error, how can I return the original value back to the screen? I got a function working to pop up a flash message stating there was an error, I just can’t get the original data back into the field (I am currently doing a SQL call to pull the original value, but that seems like a waste as the data already exists).

@Nick: It sounds like the jeditable plugin is not loaded. Check the generated HTML whether it contains a script tag like

and make sure the linked file exists. Hope this helps!

I have added this to my site, but I get an error in Javascript:

“Error: $(“.click”).editable is not a function
Source File: #link removed#
Line: 367″

I changed it to .post to make it exactly like the example above, but that did not help. Any idea why click would be undefined? I have the JS properly setup in the source as follows:

$(document).ready(function() {
$(‘.click’).editable(‘/projects/jeditable/php/echo.php’, {
id : ‘budget_145′,
name : ‘amount’
});
});

$6,600.00

Ideas? Thanks for the help.
