Just commented on your last question...Here's what I said:

Use jQuery bind

function addSelectChange() {
   $('select').bind('change', function() {
       // yada yada
   });
} 

Call addSelectChange in your ajax success function. It should do the trick. Take a look at jQuery live event too (for when you want to set events for all current and future DOM elements in a later project or something). Unfortunately the change event and a few others aren't yet supported with live. Bind is the next best thing
