I found it: I just needed to add
margin-right: 100px;
To #left. I struggled with this the whole yesterday evening and apparently I just needed to ask it here :D
Question
I have two main divs #left and #right which are in another #content div, right next to each other. #left contains a jeditable field. #right is floating on right.
When the jeditable field is clicked, it jumps below the #content. You can try it here (click "kala"): http://jsfiddle.net/BuDLC/14/
If I remove the floating from #right, the field works as expected, ie. the input field appears on top of the editable div.
HTML:
<div id="content">
<div id="right">
right
</div>
<div id="left">
<div class="edit">Kala</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
body {
background: gray;
height: 100%;
}
.edit {
border-bottom-style: dotted;
border-bottom-color: lightgray;
border-bottom-width: 1px;
background: green;
}
.edit form,
.edit input {
margin: inherit;
padding: inherit;
font: inherit;
color: inherit;
background: inherit;
border: none;
}
#content {
width: 300px;
height: 100px;
}
#right {
float: right;
width: 100px;
background-color: khaki;
}
#left {
width: auto;
min-width: 150px;
background-color: blue;
}
#right, #left {
height: 100%;
}
Please MTV, pimp my HTML/CSS

OTHER TIPS
Glad you found something that worked. If you're interested in the root cause of the problem it's because the input box was given a default width of 300px. Passing in a width of 150 to the editable extender fixes this:
$(".edit").editable("http://x.y.z/some/url", {width : 150} );
