jQuery trigger()

Hi dev!🙋‍♂️

During my work i used an event looks very interessant: is a trigger() event.

The trigger() method triggers the specified event more times:
🧑‍💻

<button type="button" class="click"> CLICK </button>

<div class="container">
</div>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
$('.button').click(function(){
    $(document).trigger('nameOfMyTriggerEvent')
})

$(document).on('nameOfMyTriggerEvent', function(){
    $('.container').hide();
})

Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

It's easy and very usefull if you need to trigger an event more times.

Hope it helpfully!
✌️
