Trigger button click on uploadify flash object

Question

I want to be able to trigger a click on the "Upload" button in Uploadify - the reason being I'd like to be able to choose to upload a file from a dropdown menu and hence need to call "Upload" somehow using javascript - unless anyone has another clever idea?

The following DOES NOT work:

$('#file_uploadUploader').trigger('click');
