Yeah, this code is pretty old. I would probably be able to do it in a much nicer way in Jquery.

Hello Leite,

I would also prefer to stick with YUI only solution. Do you have any tips ?

Thanks
Joao

Hello! I have followed all the instructions here, but I don’t get to work the SQL UPDATE, I would appreciate if anybody can give me some help:

$value = urldecode($_POST['value']);
$bits = preg_split(’[-]‘, $_POST['target'], -1);
$field = $bits[0];
$id = $bits[1];

switch($field) {
case ‘title’:
$object->UpdatePostTitle($id, $value);
break;
case ‘description’:
$object->UpdatePostDescription($id, $value);
break;
}

$updateData= “UPDATE table SET table_field=’”.$value.”‘ WHERE id=’”.$id.”‘”;
mysql_query($updateData);

Sorry for the multiple comments. I was having issues with your server. You can delete the other messages.

I rolled my own based on your code to make it deployable on Facebook. It seems to work better if I convert \n to \\n for the upload field, and then back to \n for the text area. Otherwise, the text area doesn’t seem to receive any text after a newline character. Also, adding a tag to your preview would make the newlines display properly in-browser.
