How to bind an event handler to <option>
<p>Here is my code:</p>

<pre><code>$(".multiple").each(function() {
        $(this).bind("mousedown",function() {
            alert();
        });
    });
</code></pre>

<p>Here is the HTML it applies to:</p>

<pre><code>&lt;select&gt;
&lt;option value = "textbox"&gt;TextBox&lt;/option&gt;
&lt;option class = "multiple" value = "multiplechoice"&gt;MultipleChoice&lt;/option&gt;
&lt;option class = "multiple" value = "dropdown"&gt;DropDown&lt;/option&gt;
&lt;/select&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>I expect to see some sort of alert box, but it doesn't seem to function.  How can I fix this?</p>
