What good is in_place_edit_for if it bypasses validations?

Posted by amy on July 07, 2007

I broke down and did some AJAX crap on our big rails app. Cool, I thought. I’ve got my drag-and-drop lists with acts_as_list and my in-place-edits. Don’t we look all sexy and modern? Except in_place_edit_for doesn’t bother validating changes to the model. Someone wrote a custom implementation which does do validation but I haven’t tried it out. I just yanked out my in-place-edits for the moment. I’m irritated. Gotchas everywhere. Oh, and I’m having routing issues today too.

On the plus side, I did solve some troubles I was having with Attachment_Fu’s thumbnailing. Though it’s choking now on destroy (thumbnail-delete troubles, I think I read about those somewhere). Full post on Attachment_Fu to come when we’ve ironed out all our weirdness with it.
