$('.kn-submit').trigger('mousedown');// those 2 doesnt give results :(
$('.kn-submit').trigger('click');

My issue is that I want to make this button autoclick when specific function is called Calling trigger on the class doesn't have any effects

Answer 1

You are trying to trigger on div element. You need to trigger click on submit button in this div .

Change it to:

$('.kn-submit input[type="submit"]').trigger('click');

And you dont need this:

$('.kn-submit input[type="submit"]').trigger('mousedown');

But also if you want just submit the form, use your form id and call this:

$('#form_id').submit();

Answer 2

To auto submit the form:

<form id="myform" action="target.php" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="parent_object" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="parent_field" value="field_510">
<input type="hidden" name="parent_id" value="">

<input name="view_key" type="hidden" value="view_848">
<input name="view_name" type="hidden" value="Edit OperationNu">

<input type="submit" value="Submit"> 
</form>

<script>
  $('#myform').submit();
</script>

Answer 3

Put the class name in the submit button. Also use the anonymous functions because you are calling the trigger function but you are not telling it what to do. Here is two ways you can proceed after you fix the class name:

Method 1:

$(".kn-submit").trigger("click", function(){
     // what you want to do
});//trigger function

Method 2:

$(".kn-submit").click(function(){
     // what you want to do
});//click function
