动态创建时，click（）方法不会触发锚点上的click事件

Question

I have created an anchor element using document.createElement('a') method but while trying to trigger click event then it does not fire click event. For more detail refer following code

var link = document.createElement("a");
link.setAttribute("href", context+"/images/"+filePath);
link.setAttribute("href", "http://192.168.0.170:8082/abc/AttachmentData/getAttachment?path=pathTofile");
link.setAttribute("download", "abc.csv");
link.click(); 

I want to down load file .file link is provided in href. This code is working on my local system but its not working when deployed on production server.

Answer 1

You just created the link element, but you have not added it to the document.

Try:

document.body.appendChild(link); // put it where you want the link show.
link.click()
