how to get js working in successively .load() pages

how to get js working in successively .load() pages

new to jQuery/Forum...

from reading here and there understood that js does not work in successively .load() pages, yet I tried the proposed workarounds but could not get to work, perhaps lacking a bit of understanding about the eventhandlers, of whether there are just being not read inside the html or being ignored or...

this html is being injected via .load() into a div which was injected the same way before already

<div id="enmenu">
<li><a href="#/menu.html" class="german button">de</a></li>
<li><a href="#/about_us.html" class="home button">home</a></li>
<li><a href="#/portfolio.html" class="portfolio button">portfolio</a></li>
<li><a href="#/resume.html" class="cv button">résumé</a></li></div>

button class is just for styling, whilst german, home, portfolio and resume would be the event handlers.

tried  $("#demenu") .delegate  .addClass  .live   ("germanh", "home", "portfolio", "resume") but nothing sticks, js is just not work in the loaded document

any sound input/help is highly appreciated. tkx.
