In_place_editor_field

Rails
1

Hi…

I am doing in_place editing on a text field using
in_place_editor_field.

In view I wrote:

<%= in_place_editor_field :ci_class, :name, {:id => @ci_class.id}, :html
=> {:class=>‘pageDATAFIELD’} %>

In Controller:

 def set_ci_class_name
   ci_class = CiClass.find(params[:id])
   ci_class.name = params[:value]
   ci_class.save
   ci_class.reload
   render_text ci_class.name
 end

I got this working successfully.

But when I searched more about in_place_editor_field, I found that it
is deprecated and it is changed into plugin in Rails 2.0. I’m using
Rails 1.2.5.
I want to change in_place_editor_field so that if I move to Rails 2.0,
it should be compatible there also.

I searched an alternative for this and I found the following. Please
help me to find a better solution.
