Was thinking of double click page to edit that page in the admin.

That's a nice idea. I've just been getting used to this in LemonStand and I guess it wouldn't be massively difficult to implement, just not sure quite how you'd go about doing so in terms of which files to edit.

If implemented in the core, it should be an option, not a default, I guess. Or at least, it should be possible to switch back to the "old" behaviour. (You'd be astonished how many people have difficulties performing a double-click.)

[Martijn Geerts]

Think I agree with you yellowled. Think you do a double click with a timer, than you could set the doubleclick time. Or set on 0, to disable it.

It's a very good point, so I think this is definitely a candidate for a module rather than core functionality since it's a) up to the individual developer if they want to add it and b ) has some configurable elements as well. The timer idea would be a nice touch.

It is already double click to edit. If you train some you get pretty fast with it.

Soma you cheating on me? My fingers hurt...

Second click has to be a bit for the right

I tried to implement a double click to edit a long while back. jQuery has the dblclick() event, which makes it pretty easy to differentiate from a click() event. The problem is, I never could get it working. dblclick() would never fire for me. It might have just been a bug in jQuery at the time or something. Maybe worth trying again.

Hmm. I used double click feature in jstree http://www.jstree.com/ in a project and I think it's done using dblclick event. Never noticed any problems.
