jQuery - triggerHandler( event, [data] ) Method
Description:
The triggerHandler( event, [data] ) method triggers all bound event handlers on an element (for a specific event type) WITHOUT executing the browser's default actions, bubbling, or live events.
This method behaves very similarly to the trigger method, with two major exceptions:
First: No default browser actions are triggered, the triggered event does not bubble, and live events aren't triggered.
Second: The event is only triggered on the first element within the jQuery collection.
This method returns the return value of the triggered handler instead of a chainable jQuery object.
Syntax:
Here is the simple syntax to use this method:
selector.triggerHandler( event, [data] )

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#old").click(function(){
$("input").trigger("focus");
