For jEditable first and only mandatory parameter is the URL where edited content is POST:ed to. For example: $(document).ready(function() { $(".editable").editable("http://www.example.com/save.php";, { type : 'textarea', submit : 'OK' }); }); With whis example when you edit stuff and click ok stuff gets POST:ed to http://www.example.com/save.php. This script should then save content to database. You can check examples at: http://www.appelsiini.net/~tuupola/javascript/jEditable/ or browse example source code at: http://svn.appelsiini.net/viewvc/jQuery_jEditable/trunk/examples/ JavaScript itself does not connect to database. You need to use some serverside language such as PHP, Ruby or Perl for that. -- Mika Tuupola http://www.appelsiini.net/~tuupola/ _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/ _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
