How to click a tag in phantomjs 2.0.0?

Question

There is a onclick function tied up with this tag. I need to trigger this onclick function, so I used

page.sendEvent('click', element.offsetLeft, element.offsetTop, 'left');

But it seems not working. How to make a click on tag? Thanks for any help!

Answer 1

You can include jquery by doing

page.includeJs('http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.2/jquery.min.js', callback_function);

More info: http://phantomjs.org/api/webpage/method/include-js.html

and then use jQuery and do from the callback function

page.evaluate(function(){
    $('#mylink').trigger('click');
});
