I'm having a problem with referencing #dropdown-suggestion ...when I use the on click function to create a action nothing happens...any ideas please...thank you...other than that all code works great

1. $( '#' + selector).data( 'ui-autocomplete' )._renderMenu = function (ul, items)

   {

   var that = this ;

   $.each( items, function ( index, item )

   {

   that._renderItemData( ul, item );

   });

   $(ul)

   .attr( 'tabindex' , -1 )

   .addClass( 'dropdown-menu' );

   $( '<li></li>' )

   .append( "<a>Hide Suggestion</a>" )

   .addClass( 'dropdown-suggestion' )

   .appendTo(ul);

   };

2. 
   

   $( '#dropdown-suggestion' ).click( function ()

   {

   //not executing
3. alert( 'hide' );
4. });
