jQuery trigger click vs click ()?

I have this simple code : here

$(".btn").on('click',function () {

  $(".a").trigger('click');
});

$(".btn2").on('click',function () {

  $(".a")[0].click();
});

I'm trying to simulate pressing on Anchor.

But when I use jQuery's trigger, it doesn't work (why?)

When I use "jsobj".click() func, it does work.

After reading the jQuery documentation, I don't see any reason why it shouldn't.

Help ?

PS: I'm using Chrome.
