Hi,

How do I make a request to the Rails team to include a line something  
like:

js\_options[‘savingText’] = %(‘#{options[:saving\_text]}’) if options  
[:saving\_text]

in the in\_place\_editor method?

[script.aculo.us](http://script.aculo.us) supports the ‘savingText’ option to control the text  
displayed while saving after an in-line edit. Having the ability to  
change this is necessary for the localisation of a Rails app that  
uses in-line editing.

Thanks,  
Bob

Thanks Lori, I’ve just done this (with a patch and unit test no less).

Cheers,
