Triggering Object Event using getElementByID 2

[carlosalvidrez]

Hello,
Is it possible to trigger the event of an object through it's id?

I would like to call the "onClick" event of an object (button, radio, whatever) through getElementByID.

I have tried:
1. document.getElementById( "theIdOfMyObject" ).onClick;
2. document.getElementById( "theIdOfMyObject" ).onClick();

Thanks in advance.

Got it... nevermind... sorry.
Here is a sample that works.


<input type=&quot;button&quot; id=&quot;xx&quot; onClick=&quot;alert('clicked!');&quot; value=&quot;click me&quot;>

<input type=&quot;button&quot; onClick=&quot;javascript:document.getElementById('xx').click();&quot; value=&quot;trigger above button&quot;>


I hope this helps someone.
