[jQuery] multiple ajax selects; dynamic selects don't support onchange?

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

Hi all,

i'm creating a search interface based on select dropdown methods.. the
user selects the option from the first menu and the second is created
dynamically using ajax. their is a third option which will be
populated based on their selection of the second dropdown. however
this does not work... seems the onchange method isn't workin? any
ideas guys? here's a snippet of my code

<!-- ajax requests for category search -->
                $("#jumpMenu").change(function()
                {
                        var x = $(this).val();
                        $.ajax({
                                type: "GET",
                                url: "/bookstore/includes/israel_mod/ajax.php",
                                data: "type=division&catId=" + x,
                                dataType: "html",
                                success: function(html){
                                $("#department_select").html(html);
                                },
                                error: function(msg){
                        alert( "An Error: " + msg );
                                }
                        });
                });

                $("#jumpMenu2").change(function()
                {
                        var z = $(this).val();
                        alert(z);

                });

NOTE: #jumpMenu2 is the second dropdown that doesn't seem to be taking
the change event (i put a test alert, but it doesn't work), this is
also the dynamically generated select .. would it be .. because it is
appended into the html? any ideas

thanks a lot, this has me wtih a massive migraine, can't figure out
why it wouldn't accept the onchange funchtion
