Thanks, Will save this as it may come in handy.
I went with a different approach from Brian very similar to your and it works $(function() { $('.Edit').each(function(){ var id_parts = $(this).attr('id').split('_'); $(this).editable('/notes/mynote/' + id_parts[id_parts.length - 1] { id : 'data[Notes][note]', name : 'data[Notes][note]', type : 'text', cancel : 'Cancel', submit : 'Save', tooltip : 'Click to edit the title' }); }); }) Thanks to all. It may not get said enough to all those help out others with our questions no matter how simple or advanced but THANK YOU!
