$.event.trigger no longer working with .on()

[[email protected]…]

The following code works fine in v 1.8.3 but upgrading up to v 1.9.X the event stops firing

$('#someelement').on('blaa', function(){
  console.log('blaa fired');
})

$.event.trigger('blaa')

I have created a simple fiddle to see the difference between the two version

Sorry but whoever told you to use $.event.trigger() at all was wrong. It is not a documented interface.
