How to add custom change event to a select

INTONE

I have tried doing this to trigger a change event for a select that was created by editor but nothing happens. What am I doing wrong:

$("#DTE_Field_forms.case_id").change(function(){
alert("I was tapped");
});

Unfortunately there is a bug in Editor at the moment when the field name contains a . when the name is applied to the ID which makes it unelectable.

The workaround is to use the Editor API field().node():

 $('select', editor.field('forms.case_id').node()).change(function(){ alert("I was tapped"); });

The bug will be fixed in 1.4.

Thank you for your response. When I tried it I however got this error:

Uncaught TypeError: Object forms.case_id has no method 'node'

Any idea how this can be resolved.

Sorry - typo in my code above. I've corrected it now. Just a missing bracket.
