Did you enabled inline editing in your organization,

Please check it below thing,

Click Setup | Customize | User Interface --> Both the "Enable Inline Editing" and "Enable Enhanced Lists" Should be enabled.


Hope this will solve your problem..!

 I've already enabled it . But i think there's some mistake with the code area . Please help.Still pressing my head for this .
JosephJJosephJ
Thanks for the quick response. May be you din't get my question . The custom code on task object i've written where it has pageblock in it . On this pageblock , i want an inline edit.

I do not need inline edit when i click on " Subject" field and there by hovering you see it. Which is not the requirement .

Also i tried on all the browsers as well as with my Dev Org but still no luck. (.  I'm stressed ..Can you please show me a screenshot for my better understanding ? Also please if you can come out with solution with my code, it will really help me .Much appreciated.

James,

I believe enabling inline edit is not the problem, but saving the changed value is , right?

Actually you need to use "recordSetVar" on apex:page but for Tasks standard object it is not supported. But for other standard objects they provide it, more @ https://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/pages/Content/pages_controller_sosc_list_views.htm.
You might need to try controller only solution with custom "Save" method.

@ArunKumar ,Very sorry, the requirement from the client was having the same requirement as what you showed.

@Dev , Now this is another problem that i'm facing . It is not working for "recordSetVar" as well for me . When i do changes / update the field name , it is not showing .Any modification with my code that will help me.Thanks
