Just to add my own input here - I would prefix the IDs with whatever was
most appropriate to make them unique to each form:
<form id="redlineSelect">
<select id="redlineMake">
some options here
</select>
<select id="redlineModel">
some options here
</select>
</form>
$("#redlineMake").click(...);

Right...
I admit it's not the best, but I wanted to see about that possibility so
as
to change as little code as possible.
I ended up giving each select it's own unique ID and of course that works
just fine.

Subject: [jQuery] Re: Question about the context attribute of a jQuery
call
The OP has a case where there are two forms, each with its own ID,
however,
the elements of each form are the same so there are duplicate ID's.
Perhaps this is not the best design pattern, and class or name could be
used
for selection rather than IDs. Or, set it up so the IDs are not
duplicated.
