Description
I am unable to fire a .click() event from within a Firefox plugin. For example:
$("#logonId",pageDoc).click();
pageDoc is the document of the page which Firefox is currently on. I can fire it correctly if I use the following function:
function fireEvent(element,event) {
if (document.createEvent) {
dispatch for firefox + others var evt = document.createEvent("HTMLEvents"); evt.initEvent(event, true, true ); event type,bubbling,cancelable return !element.dispatchEvent(evt);
} else {
dispatch for IE var evt = document.createEventObject(); return element.fireEvent('on'+event,evt)
}
}

The information provided isn't enough to determine whether there is a bug in jQuery core or not, but I suspect it is not. Please ask for help on the forum as a first step, and if the general consensus is that this really is a bug, reopen with a complete test case.
