title: How to set jQuery this when calling a function?
body: <p>Using jQuery, I set a link tag's click handler like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$('#lnk').click(handleClick);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>handleClick does something like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>function handleClick() {
      var $this = $(this);
      ...
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now I have a need to directly call handleClick() outside of #lnk being clicked.  Is there a way for me to set <code>this</code> when calling handleClick?</p>
