How do I trigger a BulletedList in LinkButton-mode with javascript?

<asp:BulletedList runat="server" ID="MyLovelyBulletedList" DisplayMode="LinkButton">
    <asp:ListItem Text="My Lovely Text 1" />
    <asp:ListItem Text="My Lovely Text 2" />
</asp:BulletedList>

var links = document.getElementById('<%= MyLovelyBulletedList.ClientID %>').getElementsByTagName('a');

var targetLink = links[0];

if (targetLink.fireEvent)
{
    // IE
    targetLink.fireEvent("onclick");
}
else if (targetLink.dispatchEvent)
{
    // W3C
    var evt = document.createEvent("MouseEvents");

    evt.initMouseEvent("click", true, true, window,
    	0, 0, 0, 0, 0, false, false, false, false, 0, null);

    targetLink.dispatchEvent(evt);
}

$('#<%= MyLovelyBulletedList.ClientID %>')
    .contents()
    .find('a:first')
    .trigger('click');

__doPostBack('MyLovelyBulletedList', '0');
