HTML

<a href="demoLink" id="myLink"> myLink </a>
<button onclick="fireLink(event)"> Call My Link </button>

JS

// click event listener of the link element --------------  
document.getElementById('myLink').addEventListener("click", callLink);
function callLink(e) {
    // code to fire
}

// function invoked by the button element ----------------
function fireLink(event) {                   
    document.getElementById('myLink').click();      // script calls the "click" event of the link element 
}

var btn = document.getElementById('btn-test');
var event = new Event(null);

event.initEvent('beforeinstallprompt', true, true);
btn.addEventListener('beforeinstallprompt', null, false);
btn.dispatchEvent(event);

这将立即触发一个事件'beforeinstallprompt'

如果你使用jQuery，你可以简单做到

$('#yourElement').trigger('customEventName', [arg0, arg1, ..., argN]);

然后用

$('#yourElement').on('customEventName',
   function (objectEvent, [arg0, arg1, ..., argN]){
       alert ("customEventName");
});

[arg0, arg1，…]， argN]表示这些参数是可选的。

function fireMouseEvent(obj, evtName) {
    if (obj.dispatchEvent) {
        //var event = new Event(evtName);
        var event = document.createEvent("MouseEvents");
        event.initMouseEvent(evtName, true, true, window,
                0, 0, 0, 0, 0, false, false, false, false, 0, null);
        obj.dispatchEvent(event);
    } else if (obj.fireEvent) {
        event = document.createEventObject();
        event.button = 1;
        obj.fireEvent("on" + evtName, event);
        obj.fireEvent(evtName);
    } else {
        obj[evtName]();
    }
}

var obj = document.getElementById("......");
fireMouseEvent(obj, "click");

你想要的是这样的:

document.getElementByClassName("example").click();

使用jQuery，它是这样的:

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

一个工作的例子:

// Add an event listener
document.addEventListener("name-of-event", function(e) {
  console.log(e.detail); // Prints "Example of an event"
});

// Create the event
var event = new CustomEvent("name-of-event", { "detail": "Example of an event" });

// Dispatch/Trigger/Fire the event
document.dispatchEvent(event);
