jquery working in FF but not IE...

Hello, I wrote this little piece of script.. but for the life of me I can't seem to figure out why and how it's now failing in IE but not FF.... this is the bit I think is the issue..


loadPastSearch();
$("select[name='Species'],input[name='breed'],select[name='Gender'],select[name='Pet_Friendly'],select[name='Child_Friendly'],input[name='Good_with_Children'],input[name='Good_with_Cats'],input[name='Good_with_Dogs'],input[name='Housetrained']").live('change',function() {                        
  var obj=$(this);
  pushSearch(obj);
  if(refinIt){refinment(obj);}
  alert('test');
});



but I pasted the whole lot below... now.. here is the twist.... it works in IE here..

but fails here

I'm sure it's something simple.. any ideas? Thank you for the help.. Cheers -Jeremy
