Question

I have a link with the id:

nyhedsklik

I this function that gets triggered when clicking on the link:

    $('a.poplight[href^=#]').click(function() {
        var popID = $(this).attr('rel'); //Get Popup Name
        var popURL = $(this).attr('href'); //Get Popup href to define size
I have just taken a part of the function for an example....

Now I want to make a click on the link with Jquery. Just like a user would do I have tried this which does not work:

<script>
    $(document).ready(function() {
$('#nyhedsklik').trigger("click");
});
</script>

Answer 1

If you use the click() method with no parameters, Jquery will simulate a click…

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