Click event on body after page load in jQuery?

Question

How to simulate up an automatic real click event on body after page load in Jquery?

This is not working as it needs me to manually click the body before the automatic event registers. I need to automatically simulate a real click event on page load. Below is what I have tried:

$("document").ready(function() {
   $("body,html").click(function() {
     console.log("Automatic Click");
  });
});

Answer 1

You can simulate a click with:

 $( "body" ).trigger( "click" );

You can read more about it here:

Answer 2

You can use click() like this:

$("body,html").click()

 $("document").ready(function() { $("body,html").click(function() { // catch trigger the click console.log("Automatic Click"); }); $("body,html").click(); // trigger the click });
