X - editable input editable on click on other elem

Question

I have an x-editable input, which I'm using to edit usernames. The default action of the element is when you click on itself, you can edit a value. But I want to enable click on the element's .editable and be able to edit the value inside my input. To shorten stuff here is a jsfiddle of my current situation.

jQuery:

$(function(){
  $.fn.editable.defaults.mode = 'inline';
  $('#publicname-change').editable({
    type: 'text',
    url: '/post',
    pk: 1,
    placement: 'top',
    title: 'Enter public name'
  }
);

//ajax emulation. Type "err" to see error message
$.mockjax({
  url: '/post',
  responseTime: 100,
  response: function(settings) {
    if(settings.data.value == 'err') {
      this.status = 500;
      this.responseText = 'Validation error!';
    } else {
      this.responseText = '';
    }
  }
}); 

HTML:

<div class="control-group control-group-inline">
  <label class="control-label labelModified" for="publicname-change">Public name:</label>
  <div class="controls">
    <a href="#" id="publicname-change" class="editable editable-click inline-input">Mr.    Doe</a>
    <div class="edit">edit <i class="icon-pencil pencil-input-change"></i></div>
  </div>
</div>

It would be nice if someone can help me and edit my linked jsfiddle in the way I described. On click .edit, be able to edit value.

Answer 1

It has a function called enable you can use that to enable edit

$('.edit').click(function(e){    
       e.stopPropagation();
       $('#publicname-change').editable('toggle');
});

This won't work if you don't add the first line because default behaviour is to disable edit on click of any other element.

Edit:

To enable editing only on the click of edit button and not the text, set toggle property to manual.

$('#publicname-change').editable({
    type: 'text',
    url: '/post',
    pk: 1,
    placement: 'top',
    title: 'Enter public name',
    toggle:'manual'
}
