Question

I excavated this thread: JQuery live or something similar with .change()?

I have exactly the same problem as the person in that thread. I need to call change() on elements appended() in DOM.

I had success in using .live() but for clicks. Now I need to do the same things for the change in drop down list selection.

Ideally I don’t want to use any plugins, as suggested in the topic.

Does anyone has any ideas how to solve the problem?

As of jQuery 1.7, $.live() is deprecated. You should use the new $.on() method:

$("form").on("change", "select", function(){
  alert ( this.value );
});
