The jQuery click event is a wrapper around the default browser "onclick" event.
The jQuery click event is basically a wrapper around the default browser "onclick" event. In jQuery, it provides the option to handle and trigger the mouse "onclick" event. The onclick event is being sent on an element when the mouse pointer is over that element, right after the mouse button is pressed and released.
Example
Binding click event handler
$("selector").click(function(){
// do something
});
// Or
$("selector").on("click", function(){
// do something
});
