Description
It seems triggerHandler() doesn't trigger live events as expected.
A test case is attached, and more info can be found here (http://groups.google.com/group/jquery-dev/browse_thread/thread/a44a2a9d63a42055?hl=en)
The docs say: "This particular method triggers all bound event handlers on an element (for a specific event type) WITHOUT executing the browser's default actions nor bubbling."
http://docs.jquery.com/Events/triggerHandler#eventdata
Isn't bubbling needed for .live() to work?
I was never quite sure of the design goals or use cases for
though. The limit of triggering only for the first element in the jQuery object is unusual as well.
