how to fire an event from a different html object

Hello all

I have a hidden checkbox with an "onclick" event.
I can not physically perform this event (obviously) because the
checkbox is hidden.
I would like to simulate the onclick event from outsite. Lets say from
within a function.

I was thinking whether I can do something like that:

Function myFunction(checkboxName)
{
.....
....
checkboxName.onclick(); // here fire the event of the checkbox
...
...

}

but it does not work...

Can anyone please give me a hand

Chaeers!
