Programmatically triggering events in Javascript for IE using jQuery

Question

When an Event is triggered by a user in IE, it is set to the window.event object. The only way to see what triggered the event is by accessing the window.

Answer 1

This is how I solved a simlar issue. Wrote an onSelect() handler for the datepicker. link text In that function, called __doPostBack('textboxcontrolid',''). This triggered a partial postback for the textbox to the server, which called the validators in turn.
