jQuery('#checkbox').click() does not trigger change() event

[alexvonweiss@…]

Don't know if this is inteded, but if I click with the mouse on a checkbox (or on a label that is bound with it) the change event triggers.

But if I click the checkbox node with jQuery('#checkbox').click(), the change event does not trigger.

A testcase on jsfiddle: ​http://jsfiddle.net/pKN3k/

Thanks for the report, but this is not a jQuery bug. You are synthetically triggering a click event, not actually performing the same action as a real click. Please use the ​jQuery Forum for support requests in the future.
