ajaxstop doesn't seem to fire in jquery 1.4

ajaxstop doesn't seem to fire in jquery 1.4

 I am having a problem with ajaxStop in jquery 1.4 I tried transitioning to 1.4 from 1.3.2 and the only thing that I noticed that wasn't working was my "loading" div, never hid.


My code is:

$("#loadingMessage").ajaxStart( function(e) {
   $(this).show();
}).ajaxStop( function(e) {
   $(this).hide();
});




Which (as you can see) is pretty straightforward.

The ajaxStart event definitely gets fired, but the ajaxStop event never does.

If anyone has any suggestions I would be grateful.

Thanks
