So now I have tested the inline editing jsp done by David De Vos.Simply brilliant!
Really offers you the ability to offer easier editing to content authors.
Attached Mr David De Vos's Code - Let me know if you have any hassles.

// PURPOSE
// An example of a custom 'New' Authoring Tools link which allows the action to be targeted at
// a specific server as well as passing in the current site area and authoring template.
// In WCM 6.1, this JSP can be further customised to set the values of various fields, see
// the InfoCenter topic on Remote Actions for what is possible
// USAGE INSTRUCTIONS
// 1. Set the value of 's_authoringServerNameAndPort' to match the name and port of your authoring server
// NOTE: You will need to have single-sign working between the current server and the authoring otherwise the user
// will need to login
// 2. [Optional] Customise the HTML produced for the 'New' link on line 111
// 3. Add this JSP to the following locations on all authoring nodes and any rendering nodes that use Inline Editing
//
//
//
// 4. Add a JSP Component that references this JSP
// 5. In your Authoring tools component, set the 'New action design' to a Component tag that references the library
// component created in step 4
