change event not firing after pragmatic changes
I've noticed that the change event isn't being fired for me on form elements when the changes are made pragmatically (eg, using the attr() method). For instance, a checkbox's change event fires if I click it, but not if I use .attr('checked', false);
I'm using jQuery 1.4.2 and Firefox 3.6.6. I did notice that the native event handler (as in, adding an onClick attribute to the element manually) doesn't work either, so evidently this is NOT a bug in jQuery.
I just wonder if anyone knows a way around it. I'm particularly interested in catching the change event from form elements after clearing the form.
