I am using the jeditable plugin with autocomplete and its working perfectly. (Thanks Mike!)
I would also like to have the ability to "tab" from one jeditable element to another jeditable element. It is possible to tab between text inputs in forms and I would like to have this analogous behavior with jeditable elements. My approach is as follows: 1. In the element callback of the declaration of a jeditable custom input: add a keyPress handler to recognize the tab (keyCode == 9) keypress. Add tab_target variable to the "settings" hashtable, which is the id of the jeditable element that we will tab over to. 2. The assigned "jeditable" event can be triggered on the "tab_target" element in the callback function on the jeditable element, provided the target is known. At present, a tab keyPress results in discarding the edits. I have not been able to get the callback to fire to submit the edit then change focus to the target element if I tab out of the element. I would like the tab key to result in the submit event which would trigger the callback function. Is there anything I could do short of modifying the plugin? TIA for any help. -jl
