I've created an example here:
http://people.csail.mit.edu/karger/Scrapelet/Dev/test.html
I can't figure out how to put it into jsfiddle because it involves loading three different pages linked to each other.
To clarify the original bug report: if elt is an anchor element inside an iframe, then invoking the (native) elt.click() method successfully simulates a user click and triggers navigation to the link target (at least on firefox and chrome), but invoking jquery's $(elt).click() does NOT successful navigate to the link target. Tracing jquery's 1.8.3 source code reveals that at line 2955 jquery is carefully choosing *not* to invoke the native click method---I'm not sure why.
Thanks for taking the time to contribute to the jQuery project! Please provide a complete reduced test case on jsFiddle to help us assess your ticket.
Additionally, be sure to test against the jQuery Edge version to ensure the issue still exists. To get you started, use this boilerplate: http://jsfiddle.net/FrKyN/ Open the link and click to "Fork" (in the top menu) to get started.
