We cannot directly simulate click event in Firefox. Add the following code to register mouseclick event for the button.
HTMLElement.prototype.click = function() {
var evt = this.ownerDocument.createEvent(‘MouseEvents’);
evt.initMouseEvent(‘click’, true, true, this.ownerDocument.defaultView, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, false, false, false, false, 0, null);
this.dispatchEvent(evt);
}
var evt = this.ownerDocument.createEvent(‘MouseEvents’);
evt.initMouseEvent(‘click’, true, true, this.ownerDocument.defaultView, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, false, false, false, false, 0, null);
this.dispatchEvent(evt);
}
Then, you may call the event in Firefox as if you do in IE.
For client-side button: document.getElementById(’btnUpdate’).click();
For server-side button: document.getElementById(’<%= this.btnUpdate.ClientID %>‘).click();
