I like the idea. You could create additional non-trivial elements like code (consists of pre/code tags) or more complex "widgets" like tabs, accordion menu. There are already several plugins available that support inline editing. For the property editor (eg. for image src, size, alt) a leight modal dialog would be great: It could be associated with a double click and is displayed somewhere near the element. For numbers (size) and slider widget could be used... -- Jörn Zaefferer http://bassistance.de -- "Ein Herz für Kinder" - Ihre Spende hilft!
