Hi all,

I need to trigger a button click event from my index_user_scripts.js.

I'm using App Framework.

Thanks in advance.

Try something like

Try something like

$( "#mybutton" ).trigger( "click" );

If using the design view,

If using the design view, just open the interactivity pane and you'll see your button listed there. Click on the target on the right and choose "Custom Script...". That'll add an entry for you to that index_user_scripts.js

But, essentially, it's doing something very similar to what SithLord suggested.

Hi all,

thanks for replies. I have to get the same effect of pushing a button, not only execute the code event inside the "click".

For example in c#, vb ecc it´s enough simple by calling the subroutine button_click and the framework also switches the focus on the pushed button.

I hope this clarifies my question.

using jQuery:

using jQuery:

$("#mybutton").click()
or
$("#mybutton").trigger("click");

See the jQuery docs for 'click' and 'trigger'.

Did you consult the jQuery

Did you consult the jQuery docs for those routines? You can also test them in the console.

http://api.jquery.com/trigger/

The code I gave you will not run as written. You'll need to change the CSS selector, minimally.

Hi all,

maybe I found what I need :

$( '#button1' ).trigger("click");
$( '#button1' ).addClass("pressed");

The effect is to run the code inside the click button, and set the "focus" on the related button.

Sorry but I'm newbie at HTML5, CSS, javascript dev and for a "VisualStudio developer" like me is difficult to explain how I want to get.
