How to open a page and activate specific JS?

Question

I have a jplayer on a website, which embeds several playlists. To activate these playlists, I use this function :

jQuery("#playlist_french_baroque").click(function() {
...
});

This works very well.

Now, on other pages on the same website I want to load a specific playlist. This doesn't work because I use the click() function.

What should I do for that ?

Thank you very much.

On your /listen page add this code

$(function () {
    if (window.location.hash) {
        $(window.location.hash).click();
    }
});

This will execute when the page loads, and check if the hash has been set then call the click hander on the element with that hash.
