I believe this could be because jQuery() doesn't return a set anymore in 1.4?

That said, what's the best way to do what in the test case now?

Naturally - how would that work? The point of live events is that it uses a selector to find elements to keep them up-to-date. If you're working against a document fragment (or a single element, in this case) then there's nothing to keep up to date. Live events work by doing event delegation - doesn't seem like using event delegation makes sense in this case, just use regular bind.

Ah ok, seems like a misunderstanding on my behalf then.

Does this mean the correct way to attach events to elements that are added to the document using after/before/append/prepend should be through bind and not live?
