Enabling Button not working as intended

Question

Hello everyone,

I am new here, so please bare with me if my format is wrong.

Here is what's going on. I have a custom next button using JS. After clicking on custom next button twice, it will have a popup asking user to confirm. What I want is, if the user is sure, then I can record what his answer was (as an embedded data field) and go on to the next question.

However, a weird problem occurred, I can only record the user choice but cannot let it automatically go on to the next page.

Here is the code inside addOnload function.

if(buttonStatus){
    			if(confirm('Are you saying that if I offer you $' + (parseInt(confirmFinal())+1) + ', you will take it and not take the gamble? And if I offer you $'+ (parseInt(confirmFinal())-1) + ', you would take the gamble for sure?')) {
    
    				  this.clickNextButton();
    				
    				Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData('userChoice1', confirmFinal() );
    				
    				return;
    			}
    			else{
    
    				resetCells();
    
    			buttonStatus = false;
    
    			return;

}
    		}

I also used Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.clickNextButton() and didn't work.

replace` this.clickNextButton();`with `jQuery("#NextButton").click() ;`
