jQuery Multiple Conditionals Help

I'm trying to make an event listener for when a button is 'active' (has an .active class in my case) and a link is clicked, an event happens. But I'm having trouble chaining the two conditionals together and it doesn't seem to work.

    if($('.talk').hasClass('active') && $('.goblin').click()){
        alert("the world has gone mad!");
    } else {
        //nothing happens
    }

The code is above. Again, the two conditions are:

*The 'Talk' button is active

*The link with class 'Goblin' is clicked

I'm thinking I'll have to use .live() or something for this, but I'm not sure. Help!

You should bind to the click event of Goblin, then check for your active condition:

$('.goblin').click(function () {
    if($('.talk').hasClass('active'))
    {
        alert("the world has gone mad!");
    }
});
