Rails spinoffs - Dec 2007 - Element#fire normal (i.e., non-custom) events

At the moment, my code observes an element for a ''click''
event. This
then triggers a function that fires a custom event on another object.
E.g.:

$(element).observe(''click'', function(e) { $
(other_element).fire(''custom:event'', e) });

This works fine, but I would like to be able to:

$(element).observe(''keypress'', function(e) { $
(other_element).fire(''click'', e) });

Is there any way of firing standard DOM events instead of only firing
custom events?

Thanks,

Edd

Ok, I think Element#fire documentation should clearly state that
native events are not supported.
