Flickr: Inline text editor - for photo comments, groups + help forum
Last update on Jun 5, 2008
Lets you easily re-edit or delete your flickr group, help forum and photo comments without leaving the current page you are on.
Features
Inline Edit : When you click the edit button of a comment under a photo, in a group or in the help forum a textarea is inserted where your post was, containing your post, enabling you to quickly edit and resubmit it without leaving the page you are on. Particularly useful for group admins.Search and Replace : Lets you search and replace text in your post.
Inline Delete : The script changes the delete link below group or forum posts and photo comments, so that it deletes the post without leaving the current page, especially useful for group adminstrators.

thanks for the investigation pippoz, i might change it so it looks for the url in the link rather than the text, as that never changes :)

Oh! Sorry forget my last comment. This is correct.
To get it working on italian flickr simply replace line 73:
if(thisDiv.innerHTML=='edit')with this line:
if((thisDiv.innerHTML=='edit')||(thisDiv.innerHTML=='modifica'))And line 75:
if((thisDiv.innerHTML=='delete')||(thisDiv.innerHTML=='delete topic'))with this other line:
if((thisDiv.innerHTML=='elimina')||(thisDiv.innerHTML=='delete')||(thi sDiv.innerHTML=='delete topic')||(thisDiv.innerHTML=='elimina topic'))It's really simple add other language support by adding in line 73 this block:
||(thisDiv.innerHTML=='YOUR_LANG_TEXT_FOR_edit')And adding this block to the line 75:
||(thisDiv.innerHTML=='YOUR_LANG_TEXT_FOR_delete')||(thisDiv.innerHTML =='YOUR_LANG_TEXT_FOR_delete topic')login to vote

With the security release of GreaseMonkey tonight, this script has quit working properly. It says that it is deleting a message in a thread, but it never does the actual deletion.
