I have a lightbox variation (boxy to be specific) that I am using to
load some remote HTML via AJAX.  Inside of the remote HTML, which is
basically a login panel, I have some javascript to process the login.

However, the normal jQuery methods don't have any affect on the
elements inside of the HTML that was loaded via AJAX.  If, inside my
remote HTML javascript, I add an element to the remote HTML using
document.createElement, then the jQuery methods work fine.

The methods I am trying to get to work are things like hide(),
focus(), basically anything.

If I use document.getElementById(''), the focus() method does work.
It's just that getting the jQuery object (wrapper? - I don't quite
understand how the elements are extended) using $('') shortcut or
jQuery('') doesn't return an object that will respond to methods
executed on it.

If I alert the hide function off of the element, I see the code, and I
am not getting any errors when it executes - just nothing happens.

Any ideas?  Is there a way that I can "register" the elements with
jQuery?
