I'm at a loss of how to solve this problem.

I have a field that I want to update.  I add the inline editor and it
edits fine.  The ajax submission is fine.  However I'm trying to
handle the event that a database update fails.

Edit successful > send to php > php updates database > database update
fails

What it is going to return to my inplaceeditor field is whatever I
echo out after the update fails.  However where do I get the original
value of the field?  I'm trying to pass it in the ajax call but I
can't even get to it from the inplaceeditor object.

Closest I got was trying to access the value with getValue() function
from the onEnterEditMode function handler.  I can alert out the value
but I can't seem to save it anywhere that I can get to it from the
callback to add it to the post.

What are your thoughts on how this is supposed to work?



var editor = new Ajax.InPlaceEditor(
        'elementid', '/php-controller.php', {
                onEnterEditMode: function (e){
                        alert(e.getText());
                },
                callback: function (form, value) {
                        myThis = this;
                        return 'post1=testpost1');
                }
        }
);
