The default sample code for <select> in jeditable has an OK button. That ends up requiring one more click to pick a value from a dropdown.
$('.editable').editable('http://www.example.com/save.php', { data : " {'E':'Letter E','F':'Letter F','G':'Letter G', 'selected':'F'}", type : 'select', submit : 'OK' });
To take away that OK button, just take out that “submit” attribute. Magically, after picking a value from the dropdown the value gets updated. Kudos to the contributor who enabled this feature. 😉
$('.editable').editable('http://www.example.com/save.php', { data : " {'E':'Letter E','F':'Letter F','G':'Letter G', 'selected':'F'}", type : 'select' });
The hack mentioned in the following link is not applicable anymore, assuming you are using the latest version of jeditable.
