The click handler that you are trying to trigger is most likely also attached via   document  ready    What is probably happening is that you are triggering the event before the handler is attached  The solution is to use setTimeout     quot document quot   ready function         setTimeout function                quot ul galleria li first-child img quot   trigger  click          10        A delay of 10ms will cause the function to run immediately after all the   document  ready   handlers have been called  OR you check if the element is ready     quot document quot   ready function          quot ul galleria li first-child img quot   ready function           this  click
