This tag does what Ajax.InPlaceEditor does in scriptaculous. It saves you from having to write any javascript (woohoo!). You must have scriptaculous field (www.script.aculo.us.com) or lasso 8.5 include files in the page. Bascially you click on the text an it becomes editable. THIS TAG IS NOT SECURE Basically it will pass the table name. and paramter to update to a file called "update.lasso" This lasso code should do an inline update. This will update the field in real time without submitting a form.

Parameters

-div	string, optional	The div surrounding the text if you want to stick it somewhere else
-field	string, optional	field to update
-file	string, optional	file doing the updating
-id	integer, optional	pk of the record to update
-path	string, optional	path to ajax directory
-row	string, optional	creates a text box instead of an input field
-size	integer, optional	size of the text box
-table	string, optional	table to update

[Ajax.inPlaceEditor: 
    -id=$theMember->(find:'id'), 
    -table='members', 
    -field='first_name', 
    -size = 10,
