Clicking Anchors

[wrps...@aol.com]

I have this HTML in a page:

<a href="#" onClick="return sortTable( 'sortById', 'byId' )"><img
src="/sortById.gif" alt="Sort by ID" border="0" /></a>

I want to to automatically click the link when the page is loaded.

I have tried various approaches, but nothing works.

oAnchor.click();

unsafeWindow.sortTable('sortById', 'byId');

Anyone know how to do this?

I want to to automatically click the link when the page is loaded.

I asked about the same a couple of days ago. Attached you will find my solution.

The only tricky thing might be getting the correct node to click (because there is no "id"-attribute).


Assuming that there might be something like

<div id="MyDIV">

<a href="#" onClick="return sortTable( 'sortById', 'byId' )"><img src="/sortById.gif" alt="Sort by ID" border="0" /></a>

</div>

you can do it like

$click( $( '<a', $( '#MyDIV' ) )[0] );

respectivly

var div = $( '#MyDIV' );
var a   = $( '<a', div );
$click( a );

Hope it helps,
Robert

Ooops... :)

var div = $( '#MyDIV' );
var a   = $( '<a', div );

$click( a[0] );
