My application has dynamically added Dropdowns. The user can add as many as they need to.

I was traditionally using jQuery’s live() method to detect when one of these Dropdowns was change()ed:

$('select[name^="income_type_"]').live('change', function() {
    alert($(this).val());
});

As of jQuery 1.7, I’ve updated this to:

$('select[name^="income_type_"]').on('change', function() {
    alert($(this).val());
});

Looking at the Docs, that should be perfectly valid (right?) – but the event handler never fires. Of course, I’ve confirmed jQuery 1.7 is loaded and running, etc. There are no errors in the error log.

What am I doing wrong? Thanks!
