Jquery .trigger('stop') method for .draggable

Question

$(\'#element\').draggable ({
    stop: function () {
        alert (\'stopped\');
        //do some action here
    }
}).trigger(\'stop\');

nothing

Answer 1

Use this to trigger it instead:

.trigger('dragstop')

If you want it to behave completely as a normal event, use .bind('dragstop', function) to attach it as well, the start option behaves slightly differently.
