Flickr Like Edit in Place
Posted by Ajax LadyHow to edit in place using AJAX?
If you are not familiar with how flickr handles editing data, here’s a short summary.
- Show user the data field normally (for instance: the title of a picture)
- When mouse rolls over that title, make the background of the word yellow
- If the user clicks on the word, change that word to a input box with the word in it. Also show a “save” and “cancel” button
- A user can rename the picture and then push “save.”
- Run a little script that updates the name into the database
- Remove the input box and the buttons and return to the original title display (updated with new title). (more…)
