Several years ago, every website I built was built in symfony. This was back in the symfony 1.0 and 1.5 days. I loved symfony. After building sites in homegrown PHP, trying out Joomla! and Drupal, symfony was a breath of fresh air and allowed me to build sites VERY quickly. There was only one small

I really like the jQuery jeditable plugin for editing data inline. It’s quick to install and set up and easy to use and I usually have no problems. But, today I’ve run into a real problem. I’ve finally found a work around, but I still think there’s a bug of some kind in the code.
