doc/todo/more_flexible_inline_postform.mdwn



Using the [[plugins/inline]] plugin, you can get an inline-postform for
creating new pages.
It would be quite nice to have the flexibility to do this outside of the
inline directive.
I've got a proof-of-concept hacked inline comment submission example at
http://dev.jmtd.net/comments/ for example. I've just copied the HTML from
the post form and stuck it inside a [[plugins/toggle]].
(Before Simon completed the comments plugin, I thought this would the a
logical first step towards doing comment-like things with inlined pages).

Perhaps what we need is a postform plugin/directive that inline depends
on (automatically enables); its preprocess method could automatically be
invoked from preprocess_inline when needed. --[[smcv]]


I've been looking at this stuff again. I think you are right, this would
be the right approach. The comments plugin could use it similarly, allowing
sites which desire it to have an inline comment submission form on all
pages with comments enabled. I'm going to take a look. -- [[Jon]]
