Question

I am attempting to click a button when the onClose event occurs for fancybox.
I am thinking that I just have a syntax issue, but I am not completely sure. Here is my code. :

<script type="text/javascript">
        var $_returnvalue = false;

        $(document).ready(function () {

            $(".stopNumberLnkItem").fancybox({
                'width': '85%',
                'height': '85%',
                'autoScale': false,
                'transitionIn': 'elastic',
                'transitionOut': 'elastic',
                'speedIn': 400,
                'speedOut': 400,
                'type': 'iframe',
                'showCloseButton': true,
                'onClosed': function () {
                    if ($_returnvalue = 'Y') {
                        $('#Chkbxaddto').attr('checked', 'checked');
                    }
                    $(".gridStopSelectorListLnkItem").trigger('click');
                }
            });
        });

    </script>

Here is my linkbutton that I am attempting to click via the trigger(‘click’) above. :

<asp:LinkButton runat="Server" ID="RefreshGridStopListButton" Text="Refresh Grid Stop List" CssClass="gridStopSelectorListLnkItem"
                          OnClick="RefreshGridStopListButton_Click" Font-Size="smaller" Visible="true"/>

I have been trying different selectors and different ways of performing the click but to no avail. I have stepped through with IE developer tools but it does not seem to be clicking that button. Any thoughts on this one would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Answer 1

depends how that linkbutton is rendered in the HTML. If it’s a <button> or I think also a <input type='button'> then you could just do $(".gridStopSelectorListLnkItem").click() but if it’s a <a> not sure if click() applies to that (but you can try)
