The plugin you are using JEditable monitors the elements you've tagged with a specific class for the 'click` event and then enabled the editing of the element once you've clicked it.

You can easily fire the click event from another element like this:

$("a#click_to_edit").click(function(){
  $("#editme").triggerHandler("click");
  return false;
})

.

<p id="editme" class="editable_textarea">Some Text to Edit</p>
<a id="click_to_edit" href="#">click me to edit the paragraph above</a>
