Acting on events fired by templated controls

Acting on events fired by templated controls

Hello all,

I try to hook up to the change event of a select control. The template for the control is outside of my page and injected via:
       $.get('templateResource.html'function (ReceiptRow) {
            $.tmpl(ReceiptRow, array).appendTo("#tblReceipts");         });
The template is rendered correctly to the page but I do not get informed. 
The alert is not fired in both ways:
$(".ddlCurrency").live("change"function () { alert("ddlCurrencySelectedIndexChangedViaLive"); });
$(".ddlCurrency").change(function () { alert("ddlCurrencySelectedIndexChanged"); });
Do I miss something here?

Your help is appreciated!
