The event code only deals with "unobtrusive" events. If you have an
inline event in the tag, you need to use the attr() method to overwrite
the "onchange" attribute with a blank string. It sounds dumb, and... it
is. But, it works.
$( "#myradiobutton" ).attr( "onchange", "" ).change( function() { ... } );
You can throw in unchange() anyway, for good measure, in case there may be
events registered the not-inline way as well.
This brings up an interesting question. Should un<event> simply deal with
this case? I think that adding .attr( "on<event>", "" ) to each un<event>
would help enforce the Principle of Least Surprise.
