[DanaBulpett]

How can I activate an item in the toolbar from javascript as if the
user had clicked on that item?

Thanks in advance

The "Check" (spell check) item in the google toolbar.

I presume it is not generally possible (so it would not be a question of
how) since extensions like these usually run outside of the sandbox while
user code runs within. The Google Toolbar API documentation also provides
no information to that end, so it would appear you can only try and UTSL.
