jquery .change() not recognizing change!
<p>I have a option select that is generating a slider. When the select option changes, the slider changes and the same way, the other way around.</p>

<p>I've setup an alert to fire when an option on the select is changed. This alert recognizes and fires when I change the option from the select, but when I change it from the slider, nothing fires. </p>

<p>I really need to get this thing to fire. Here is my code.</p>

    $(function(){

        var abc = $('select#privs').selectToUISlider().next();

        $('.change').change(function() {
             alert("Ive been called");
        });
    });

&lt;/script&gt;
&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;

&lt;/script&gt;

&lt;/head&gt;

    &lt;body&gt;

            &lt;option value="Create"&gt;Create&lt;/option&gt;
            &lt;option value="Update"&gt;Update&lt;/option&gt;
            &lt;option value="Delete"&gt;Delete&lt;/option&gt;
        &lt;/select&gt;

    &lt;/fieldset&gt;
