hi, this looks outstanding - i'm curious to know what happens when a view is presented like a table with columns and column headers, meaning if the 'inline comment' is now one column that's reasonably narrow, what happens to the display?

could it possibly be inserted below the 'row' ?

well that's interesting. I have not created this with tables in mine to be honest. Recommended setting is "unformatted". Maybe I should look for a way disable the table style.

i'm thinking of it as a great utility in interface and ease of use for a business application

i've got views of nodes in a knowledge management app, so presenting these in tables with columns for key fields is what i'm currently doing

what would be nice is in the comment box where it says "last comment X hours ago" to have an inline comment link, but not sure how the ajax gets conjured up (overlays the view? who knows)

Right now the javascript will look for divs that only exist in the unformatted list style type to insert the data loaded via ajax.

Its certainly possible to make this work with table markup too, but its not something I need so its not likely to happen soon.

It works with the html list style plugin but looks goofy.

Sorry I can't give you a nicer answer than that.

good point - they'd probably look crazy inside a columnar width
now trying to rethink a new view display where i could make use of this, because it is excellent and a great interface enhancement

An JS overlay would be great here.

Core JQuery UI can do this or a 3rd party module like beautytips.
