I have a time on user control, and button on the web page. On perticular time I want to fire button click event. Please tell me how do this.
.click javascript method will help you.
document.getElementById("buttonId").click();
If you want the button clicked code to run after five seconds, for example, you would do the following.
setTimeout("document.getElementById(\"buttonId\").click();", 5000)
This link has basic information about timing in JavaScript.
It would be helpful if you could tell us more about the particular time-related user control you are using.

I need to create bookmark to my browser that will open link with id:
window.getElementById('updateOk').click()
and then (opens little window with another button)
document.getElementsByClassName('rmit-save-details btn btn-inline right btn-green')[0].click();
how can I connect these two to work in one click in Chrome browser? I understand that the 2nd script must wait some time (maybe 0,5 seconds will be enough) and I even find setTimeout function but I just can't do that working... Nothing happens after clicking. When I click to bookmark with just one js script, it's working.
Thanks a lot!
Why don't you use a callback function on clicking over the first element.
document.getElementById('updateOk').addEventListener("click",function(e){
// return your other element callback here
},false);
And within the callback put the exact same thing that you might be using for the click of .rmit-save-details element. It might be any submit event or whatever you want to do but it would work.
I have search this kind of post and i didnt find anything.
So my question is :
Is it possible after a time make an auto click on current position mouse?
Example: If mouse is over link blablaba.com click on link or mouse over is over another link so click on that link.
Sorry for my English.
Thank you.
I want to add code on my website, and after a time do autoclick on current position of mouse.
You have this all wrong. Events like "click" are used to trigger function calls. You don't need to trigger the event manually, just call the functions that were about to be called if someone triggered it.
Specifically, if you want the user to land on a new page(that happens when the user clicks a link) you can use redirects
How can I simulate exact behave of mouse click on a browser's button (e.g. Firefox)?
When user clicks on a button using mouse click then an event is generated. Could I use or call the event manually?
I can use Javascript to simulate click on a button but it will not call the same event in the same way as when a user really clicks on the button.
The reason I ask for solution: record engine for recording any event occur in the document level works in background, I want to create web app with self play functionality, that means when I browse the web app in browser it will do business flow automatically and then the engine will record the events.
Please ask if my question not clear, Thanks.
This is easiest with something like jQuery.
//listen for clicks - real or simulated
$('#some_element').on('click', function() { alert('click!'); });
//simulate clicks (two ways)
$('#some_element').click();
$('#some_element').trigger('click');
It is possible to know, from inside the event callback, whether the event was real or simulated. I did a blog post on this some months ago.
You should look into Selenium. It uses automation and other native APIs to simulate user input in exactly the way you wish.
I've got a browser plug-in I'm working on and I want it to behave a certain way when the user clicks things. Not limited to, but including, a behavior for links!
The problem is that the plug-in has to work for a wide variety of sites, and some of those sites use the dreaded pseudo-protocol such as:
Show Element
Currently my behavior is added to the anchor tag via
anchor.addEventListener('click', superAwesomeFunction);
Unfortunately this has a problem where the click listener only fires once. If I preventDefault() of course the click listener sticks around, but I've now broken the host site! Otherwise, clicking the link fires the click listener but only on the first click. I'm wondering why my superAwesomeFunction() doesn't fire again if the link is clicked a second time. Is href="javascript:things()" doing more than I know?
It is possible to add an event listener to a link that has a JavaScript function call set in the href attribute.
Here's a jsFiddle that shows it working. Both functions fire each time the link is clicked.
There must be something else going on with your code beyond what we can see in what you gave us.
If you must wait user some time and going on url then, you may add some code to your superAwesomeFunction's process end:
document.location.href = $(this).attr("href");
What I want to do is execute a mouse click say on youtube to press play when the page loads. How do I click that specific location (assuming it is always in the same location)?
I have tried and failed with
var e = document.getElementById('myelem'); e.click();
var e = new jQuery.Event("click");e.pageX=x;e.pageY=y;$("#elem").trigger(e);
and stuff like that. nothing really works. Any suggestions? I am using google chrome
alright it seems like there has been a little confusion so I will further explain. I have created a popup tied to a keystroke event what I want to do is trigger x-webkit-speech by clicking the microphone that is in my popup so that the user does not have to click it themselves. I have tried a bunch of ways like above and have not been successful. After this my program will be done so I really would love some help thanks :]
In general, browsers won't let simulated mouse clicks trigger "real" actions, e.g. a jQuery click() won't cause the browser to follow a link. Otherwise, spammers could trigger banner clicks on every page load (among other more malicious uses).
According to http://www.filosophy.org/2011/03/talking-to-the-web-the-basics-of-html5-speech-input/:
Eventually, it will be possible to invoke the speech-recognition directly with the startSpeechInput() method, but to my knowledge this is not implemented in any of the current browsers.
I suggest waiting for Chrome to implement the API so that you can trigger speech input from JavaScript.
<button id="myButton" onClick="alert('You clicked me!');">Click me</button>
document.getElementById("myButton").click();

That's with regular clickable items though. But with YouTube Videos, you could also append &autoplay=1 to the end of the url (if it's embedded into a page).
