InPlaceEditor serious functionality bug!

Description

I've been trying to work with Scriptaculous InPlaceEditor since quite some days now, and no matter how hard I try, I keep stumbling upon the same error.

Error Report:

- Upon using an ExternalControl, first time the externalcontrol is clicked, the editing textbox appears replacing the text to be edited, but when clicked again, the text to be replaced doesn't hide but shift right underneath the textarea.

- When ExternalControl is used, clicking on the actual text also brings up the editing textarea! which shouldn't happen since we're using an ExternalControl for this purpose.

- Upon doing repeated editing, like 4 or more times, the textarea ends up showing the "savingText" message inside it and looses track of the actual text to be edited.

- ajaxOptions doesn't work correctly when supplied with arguments such as "parameters etc." (ignores these parameters) and the callbacks (such as oncomplete etc.) are totally ignored as well by the script on execution...

* Additionally, I can't find any documentation on the usage of automatically "strip HTML Chars" when in edit mode..

I'm attaching screenshots of the problem and the actual code i'm using...
