How in jquery to artificially trigger an event assigned to an element?

Question

Let some element be assigned an event:

$('#someelement').click(function() { // обработчик события 1 });

and you need to call the handler of this event, for example, on another event:

 $('#otherelement').keydown(function() { // обработчик события 2 // а вот здесь надо вызвать обработчик события 1. });

How can I do that?
