JQuery and Prototype Events

Question

I have a prototype code that fires on a “load” event:

  Event.observe($(imageEl), 'load', this.someFunction.bind(this));

When I create a 'Real' event using jQuery code, like

  jQuery(...imageEl selector...).attr("src", filename);

it runs the prototype code (someFunction). Good!

Next, I try to run the Prototype code using the jQuery trigger:

  jQuery(...imageEl selector...).trigger('load');

But now nothing happens, i.e. this line does not run the prototype code.

Any idea how to trigger a Prototype event from jQuery?

Answer 1

You must call the handler by passing the necessary arguments directly or by running your own DOM event .
