My team is working on a custom node type (lesson) that contains multiple embedded nodes of a different type (activity.) The lessons require edit-in-place functionality for the embedded activity nodes. We have a version working, sans multiple-value CCK field support in the nodes.
We've decided to make a custom CCK field that will embed the activity nodes, instead of building the whole form with custom code in lesson node module. The goal is to embed the entire child node (swappable with a click to the edit node form), including CCK fields, and also support reordering, adding, updating and deleting.
However, we've run into many problems getting this far, and I suspect they aren't over yet.
I'm interested in thoughts, advice, or help on this problem anyone could provide. I can think of many other uses for single-page, edit-in-place embedded node functionality. We don't want to use a popup for this, as the goal is to mimic a document as much as possible. I will pay for help if anyone with the right experience is interested in working with us on this and related problems.
I've looked at the following, but nothing comes very close:
