The trigger () method triggers the specified event type for the selected element.
The Triggerhandler () method triggers the specified event type for the selected element. However, the browser default action is not performed and event bubbling does not occur.
The Triggerhandler () method is similar to the trigger () method. The difference is that it does not trigger the default behavior of events (such as form submissions), and only affects the first matching element.
The difference:
- It does not cause the default behavior of events (such as form submissions)
- . Trigger () will manipulate all the elements that the JQuery object matches, whereas. Triggerhandler () affects only the first matching element.
- Events created by. Triggerhandler () do not bubble in the DOM tree, and nothing happens if the target element does not process them directly.
- The method returns the return value of the event handler instead of the JQuery object, which has a chain of functionality. In addition, if no handlers are fired, this method returns undefined.
