jQuery .trigger() multiple events

Question

I\'m writing a jQuery plugin and using .on and .trigger as my pub/sub system. However, I want to trigger multiple events in different scenarios.

Answer 1

JQuery itself does not support triggering multiple events, however you could write custom extension method triggerAll

(function($) {
    $.fn.extend({
        triggerAll: function (events, params) {
            var el = this, i, evts = events.split(' ');
            for (i = 0; i < evts.length; i += 1) {
                el.trigger(evts[i], params);
            }
            return el;
        }
    });
})(jQuery);

And call it like following:

$this.triggerAll("success next etc");
