How can i fire jQuery .click() or .tap() event on mobile devices explicitly

Question

I am firing a click event on a div by click() function of jquery. It is working good in desktop browser, but in mobile devices it is not working.

I found that click event doesn't supported by mobile browsers, i tried tap event by trigger("tap"), but it is also not working.

I need to tap or click event in mobile devices by jquery/javascript, how can i do this ?

this looks a lot like this question - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10722730/jquery-click-event-not-working-in-mobile-browsers — TrojanMorse, May 11 '15 at 16:49
I need to trigger this event because there is a plugin i have which shows details information of the division which was i clicked. So i need to show that information by default when he comes up to the website. — AliasgerSW, Aug 17 '15 at 06:52

Click events should work on mobile. Sometimes you need to add

cursor: pointer

to the clickable elements.

Means i have to add a style to that element ? – AliasgerSW May 12 '15 at 08:09
Yes, but this is just for iOS devices. By default elements (except for a tags) are not clickable on iPhones/iPads. – Tatermelon May 12 '15 at 18:04
