Identify this item clicked on trigger
<p>I have a menu that is usually clicked by the user.  It executes a function</p>

<pre><code>$('.MenuItem').click(function() {
 document.writeln($(this).html() + ' was clicked');   
});
</code></pre>

<p>I have run into a new requirement where I need to trigger the click of a menu item programmatically.  So I tried</p>

<pre><code>//I want to trigger click and identify the item that has been clicked. Normally, I just use 
//the this object, but on a trigger I don't know how to assign this so `.html()` functions.

//This doesn't work as intended.   
//$('.MenuItem').trigger('click','Item1');
</code></pre>

<p>How can I identify the item clicked on <code>trigger</code>?<br /><br />
