The HTMLElement.click() method simulates a mouse-click on an element.
When click() is used with supported elements (e.g. one of the <input> types), it fires the element's click event. This event then bubbles up to elements higher in the document tree (or event chain) and fires their click events. One exception: The click() method will not cause an <a> element to initiate navigation as if a real mouse-click had been received.

[1] Prior to Gecko 5.0 (Firefox 5.0 / Thunderbird 5.0 / SeaMonkey 2.2), Gecko did not implement the click() method on other elements that might be expected to respond to mouse-clicks, such as links (<a> elements), nor would it necessarily fire the click event of other elements.
[2] In Presto-based versions of Opera, the click() method will be silently ignored if made on an <input> with its type attribute set to file and its CSS display property set to none.
[3] Older versions had HTMLInputElement.click(), and HTMLButtonElement.click() only.
