      @
      QWebView* view = ....

      QPoint pos = ... //position of the HTML element mapped to the widget

      QMouseEvent pressEvent( QEvent::MouseButtonPress, pos, Qt::LeftButton, Qt::NoModifier);
      QApplication::sendEvent( view, &pressEvent );

      QMouseEvent releaseEvent( QEvent::MouseButtonRelease, pos, Qt::LeftButton, Qt::NoModifier);
      QApplication::sendEvent( view, &releaseEvent );
      @

      or even simplier (if it's a button for example) would be finding the element in a QWebView using the QWebElement API and call javascript on it:
      @
      QWebElement document = view->page()->mainFrame()->documentElement();
      QWebElement button = document.findFirst("input[type=submit]"); //use css selectors
      button.evaluateJavaScript("this.click()");
      @
