Hi,

There are two different flavours of inplace_edit.

inplace_edit = :ajax
When clicking inplace edit link server is asked to send corresponding
input form. Might be used for Recordselect, Multiselect, dynamic
data, ...

inplace_edit = true
When clicking inplace edit link input form will be copied from a
hidden template without server interaction. Might be used for boolean,
static select, calendar_date_select,....

You just have to pick the right strategy for your specific
attribute. :-)
number should be inplace_edit = true
select might be both:
lookup tables, static selects => true
dynamic select options => ajax
