Select Image dropdown with click function.

Select Image dropdown with click function.

The following code produces the images in the dropdown select box, but does not process the click function.
 
  <select id="ipselect" name="ipselect" size="15" style="width:150px" >
   <?php echo $IP; ?>
  </select>

 
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
 $(document).ready(function() {
  $("#ipselect").msDropDown();
  $('#ipselect').click(function() {
   alert("selected!");
  });
 });
</script>
 
 
Using the same code, I alter the $("#ipselect").msDropDown(); to a bogus ID such as ipselect1.  The jquery dropdown select is gone, and the default select box is viewable.  When I click one of the options, the click function processes with no issues.
 
Is it not possible to use the click function with the dropdown select code?
 
FYI, I think the image dropdown code was posted on the jquery site as a tutorial.
