Hello,

this works great in FF but not in IE, Chrome or Safari.

$('#countryDropDown option').click(function() {
   var countryID = $(this).val();
   dostuff();
});
// countryDropDown = id of select

So, as you can see I want to attach a click event to each option.

I alos tried

var allOpts = $('#countryDropDown option'),
   l = allOpts.length,
   i = 0;

for (i = 0; i < l; i += 1) {
    $(allOpts[i]).click(function() {
        var countryID = $(this).val();
        doStuff();
    });
}

It still does not want to work in any other browser but FF. What am I doing wrong? Thanks
