How to fake an event in mootools?

Question

Sample code:

<div id="first">first div</div>
<div id="second">second div, click here or on the previous it's the same</div>

Suppose I set an event onclick on the first div that alerts the div's content. How do I call that event? In example clicking on the second div I'd like it to call the click event of the first div and alert('first div')

Answer 1

Check out their Element.fireEvent() method. Try this:

$('first').addEvent('click', function()  { 
             alert($('first').innerHTML); 
});

$('second').addEvent('click', function()  { 
             $('first').fireEvent('click'); 
       });

Answer 2

$('first').click();
