Question

Here I am doing a basic trigger example but jquery is unable to execute it. I know jquery has some issues with such kind of trigger but isn’t there any solution for the same.

Demo of code: jsfiddle

Answer 1

To trigger a click object, just do this:

  $('#link').click();

This will only work though if the click() function has been already bound by jQuery, but may be what you’re looking for.

Otherwise, if you’re trying to open a new window using javascript, use window.open('url','_blank','width=100,height=100');

Instead of window.location like the others have posted, this will not open in a new target window.

There are also many more attributes you can set for the opening window in addition to width and height in the example above.
