Sort of. The in_place_editing helpers were removed from Rails core in 2.0 and made into a plugin. Google 'rails in place edit'. There are several plug-in options. Note that this is not specifically what you asked for. That is, this does not generate a pop-up box. There are lots of reasons not to go that route including pop-up blockers and the removal of 'target=blank (etc)' from the standards. If you really want a pop-up, you'll have to roll your own.
