Click source in JavaScript and jQuery, human or automated?

Question

We all know that you can simulate click or any other event on an element using one of these ways:

$(\'#targetElement\').trigger(\'eventName\');
$(\'#targetEl         


        

Answer 1

Here's one way I have found (tested in Chrome)

$('#foo').click(function(e) {
    if (e.originalEvent)
        alert('Has e (manual click)');
    else
        alert('No e (triggered)');
});
