Question

I’m calling trigger on a checkbox to flip its state. Once this is done I need to call a function. Part of the function counts the number of boxes checked so this function can only be called after the checkbox has flipped.

 $('input',this).trigger('click');

 // What do I do to call afterTrigger() when 'input' click event has finished.

 function afterTrigger(){
     // ... calculation
 }

Answer 1

You can call the function directly after the trigger event.

$('input',this).trigger('click'); 
afterTriger();
