<div class="longdesc">
<p>This method is a shortcut for <code>.bind('click', handler)</code> in the first two variations, and <code>.trigger('click')</code> in the third.</p>
<p>The <code>click</code> event is sent to an element when the mouse pointer is over the element, and the mouse button is pressed and released. Any HTML element can receive this event.</p>
<pre>For example, consider the HTML:
<div id="target">
Click here
</div>
<div id="other">
Trigger the handler
</div></pre>
<p class="image"><img src="/images/0042_05_03.png" alt=""></p>
<p>The event handler can be bound to any <code><div></code>:</p>
<pre>$('#target').click(function() {
alert('Handler for .click() called.');
});</pre>
<p>Now if we click on this element, the alert is displayed:</p>
<p><span class="output">Handler for .click() called.</span></p>
<p>We can also trigger the event when a different element is clicked:</p>
<pre>$('#other').click(function() {
$('#target').click();
});</pre>
<p>After this code executes, clicks on <span class="output">Trigger the handler</span> will also alert the message.</p>
<p>The <code>click</code> event is only triggered after this exact series of events:</p>
<ul>
<li>The mouse button is depressed while the pointer is inside the element.</li>
<li>The mouse button is released while the pointer is inside the element.</li>
</ul>
<p>This is usually the desired sequence before taking an action. If this is not required, the <code>mousedown</code> or <code>mouseup</code> event may be more suitable.</p>
