changeOptions not working on IE6

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I select USA as the country
2. call .udf("changeOptions") to that state select after ajax populate
3. state select is still disabled

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
State should be repopulated as reflected on my original select element

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.6

I have a cascading dropdown populated via ajax country->state->county

This is how I load the states

coming from ajax post

$.each(data, function (i, state) {
     items += "<option value='" + state.Value + "'>" + state.Text + "</option>";
});

stateControl.html(items);

looks like "change" event is monitoring the original selectbox and is not 
changing the value of my original selectbox. Thus, no "change" is triggered

Hi, old school adding of "change" events do work. but it doesn't seem to bind 
to jquery "change" event.

//this does not work ----

$("#someID").change()

//this one works

var master = $("#someID");

            // add/remove from http://ejohn.org/blog/flexible-javascript-events/ thanks
            var addEvent = function (obj, type, fn) {
                if (obj.attachEvent) {
                    obj['e' + type + fn] = fn;
                    obj[type + fn] = function () { obj['e' + type + fn](window.event); }
                    obj.attachEvent('on' + type, obj[type + fn]);
                } else
                    obj.addEventListener(type, fn, false);
            };

var masterEvent = function (event) {
                alert("hello");
};

// listen for events on master old skool
addEvent(master[0], "change", masterEvent);
