Rails spinoffs - Sep 2007 - How to call an event handler by program ?

I want to call an event handler by program, what is the better way ?

1 - Write a event handler which handles program call :

init()
{
	$(''my_button_1'').observe(''click'',my_handler);
	$(''my_button_2'').observe(''click'',my_handler);
	...

	my_handler($(''my_button_1''));
	...

	my_handler(elt)
	{
		//elt is a element or a event
		if(!elt.id) elt=Event.element(elt);

		elt.addClassName(''selected'');

		etc...;
	}
}

2 - Call my event handler with a ''fake'' event :

init()
{
	$(''my_button_1'').observe(''click'',my_handler);
	$(''my_button_2'').observe(''click'',my_handler);
	...

	my_handler({target:$(''my_button_1'')});
	...

	my_handler(evt)
	{
		//evt is an event
		elt=Event.element(evt);

		elt.addClassName(''selected'');

		etc...;
	}
}

Or is there another solution ?

Thank you
