</div>Makes sense. Anywaw, for non-js there is currently a refresh and a<br>
distinct confirmation page (if confirms are configured true).<br>

<br>
</div>I'm not sure about your suggestion as the double-click is not a popular<br>
action on a web page. Also, when browsing, one does not have much room<br>
(take for example a text field or an ENUM or a foreign key with a<br>
drop-down for the choices).<br>
<br>
How about a new window that would open when clicking the Edit icon? It<br>
would be similar to the distinct page we currently get.<br>
<br>
Also, don't forget that the checkboxes can be used for multi-edit? Does<br>
this fit with AJAX? Not sure.<br></blockquote><div><br>Actually on second thoughts, a single click is sufficient. As far as room space is concerned, the following can be implemented: On clicking, the row height and cell width would expand and thus give more room. A new window would defeat the purpose of AJAX.<br>

</div>Are you talking about the Structure page or the Insert one?<br>
