Angularjs doesn't trigger event handled by addEventListener

Question

I\'m trying to trigger event on a element with mousedown event handled by addEventListener call but I don\'t know why it doesn\'

Answer 1

Angular uses jqLite internally. If you load jQuery before Angular it will use jQuery instead of jqLite.

triggerHandler only triggers events that are added by jqLite/jQuery.

To trigger events added by addEventListener you need to use the standard API.

For example:

var el = document.getElementById('zero');
el.click();

Or:

var el = document.getElementById('zero');
el.dispatchEvent(new Event('click'));
