  • According to the [documentation](https://learn.jquery.com/events/triggering-event-handlers/): _"The `.trigger()` (which is basicly what triggers `.click()`) function cannot be used to mimic native browser events, such as clicking on a file input box or an anchor tag. This is because, there is no event handler attached using jQuery's event system that corresponds to these events."_. You may want to read [this Q/A](https://stackoverflow.com/q/6068266/5768908) to solve the issue. – icecub Jan 04 '20 at 08:22
  • Does this answer your question? [jQuery: how to trigger anchor link's click event](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6068266/jquery-how-to-trigger-anchor-links-click-event) – icecub Jan 04 '20 at 08:24
  • first: `var link = $("#link_id").attr("href");` then, in PHP: `location.href = link;` – Reza sh Jan 04 '20 at 10:35
