I'm not familiar with the Admintasia template. If #AP_PONum is in the
DOM when you bind the event handler, then you shouldn't need live.
It's only one element, so there shouldn't be a performance hit either
if you just use bind. The only reason .bind() wouldn't work is if
#AP_PONum isn't in the DOM when you call it (or if you later remove
#AP_PONum and then add an element with id="AP_PONum" later).
Given those caveats, this should work:
$("#AP_PONum").bind("change", function(){
ap_po = $(this).val();
$("#content-box")
.load("webapps/finished_jewelry/PurReq/display/
dsp_addPurchaseRequest.cfm?poNum="+ap_po);
});
If that still doesn't work for you, we'd be able to help more
effectively if we could see if a test page somewhere.

This is true...
Back to my particular anomaly...
I just replaced the "live" call with a "bind" call, and now there's
nothing
in Firefox either..
I'm using the Admintasia template
(http://www.admintasia.com). Because of the way this is set up (or
the way
that I'm calling things) I've had to use the live function to get
things to
work.
I think I'm right in assuming that the "live" function keeps the
Ajax events
alive...
So is there a way to get around this? I can always add a submit
button to
every dropdown I'm using but that would kind of defeat the purpose.

"working" and "supported" are two different animals
And it works because the "change" event does bubble events the way
that works with ".live()", and, no surprise here, IE doesn't bubble
events the way that works with ".live()".... but apparently some way
around IE's shortcomings is in place for 1.4's implementation of
".live
()"

Thanks Karl,
But if it's not supported then why would it work in Firefox?
Secondly, would the bind method be a workaround?
Thanks

Hi Scott,
Take a look at the documentation for the .live() method:
"Currently not supported: blur, focus, mouseenter, mouseleave,
change,
submit"
http://docs.jquery.com/Events/live#typefn
The change event doesn't bubble in IE, so it doesn't work with .live
(). jQuery 1.4 is going to provide a workaround for that, but as of
1.3.2, it's not supported.

I fat fingered the last one so...
I have this piece of code
$("#AP_PONum").live("change", function(){
ap_po = $("option:selected",this).val();
$("#content-box").load("webapps/finished_jewelry/PurReq/display/
dsp_addPurchaseRequest.cfm?poNum="+ap_po);
});
which works like a champ in firefox.
it's called from a drop down grabs the ColdFusion template and
load it
in a div called content-box.
This does nothing in IE8, no error, no load, no love.. nothing
any ideas on how to work around this?
