Mark - you might be able to nudge the jEditable creator to mod the
plugin to allow for a "remote" activator. Or, if you're feeling
adventurous you could do it yourself. It would be a fairly
signifcant mod however, since the code always refers to both the
event target and the returned form as "this".
Why make a mod when jQuery itself can handle it :)
First bind jEditable to some event. For example doubleclick. Then
make the clicked "remote" link to cause doubleclick on edited
element. For example something like:
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".editable").editable("http://www.example.com/save.php", {
event : 'dblclick',
type : 'textarea',
submit : 'OK'
});
$(".editable_link").bind('click', function() {
$(this).prev().dblclick();
});
});
You have to adjust above to suit your html. Workind demo at:
