using Jquery to automatically submit form

Question

I am trying to submit a form by using jquery automatically after page load

$(function(){

$("input[name=name]").val("somename");
$("input[name=email]").val("[email protected]");
$('#aweberform').submit();

});

Both the name/email value can be seen to get populated on the form. But the submit event wont triggered.

Any one here that can shed any lights ?

thanks !
