Call the onclick function from JQuery with parameters

I am using a store locator jquery plugin from http://www.bjornblog.com/web/jquery-store-locator-plugin for my website and everything works fine but what I want to add is once the store location list is generated, the first one on the list is automatically clicked.

In the Jquery, I can see there is a section controlling the click on the list. It has some parameters.

// Handle clicks from the list          
$(document).on('click.'+pluginName, '.' + _this.settings.locationList + ' li', function () {
//do the work.
}

The pluginName is 'storelocator' and _this.settings.locationList is 'bh-sl-loc-list'

the elements of the list shown on the html 

<div class="bh-sl-loc-list">
  <ul class="list list-unstyled"></ul>
    <li></li>
    <li></li>
    <li></li>   
</div>

I tried the belows but obviously nothing worked, what sort of syntax I should use to maybe pass the parameters and call it? Much appreciated.

document.getElementById(".bh-sl-loc-list:first-child").onclick();
$('.bh-sl-loc-list:first-child').trigger('click');

It seems that you want to trigger the event bind on the element li.

Maybe you could try it like this:

$('.bh-sl-loc-list li:first-child').trigger('click.pluginName');

Or:

$('.bh-sl-loc-list ul li:first-child').trigger('click.pluginName');

The event binding has a namespace, you need to include that in your trigger call.

$('.bh-sl-loc-list:first-child').trigger('click.pluginName');

Replace pluginName with the actual name of the plugin (whatever is in its internal variable pluginName).
