[jQuery] divert click to an anchor

Tue, 21 Aug 2007 18:53:23 -0700 

<html><head>
<script language=javascript src="jquery-1.1.3.1.js"></script>
<script language=javascript>
$(document).ready(function(){
  $("div.test").click(function(){
     alert('div.test clicked');
     $("a").click();
  });
});
</script></head><body>
<a href="http://google.com";> google </a>
<div class='test'>click</div>
</body></html>

I have a situation where if anyone clicks anywhere within the div, I
want the anchor to be fired - in this case, navigate to google.com.
Why doesn't the above code work?

thanks in advance.
