RadioButtons hooked up to my change() jQuery event don't fire

Here's my code:

<script type="text/javascript">
    $('input[name="paymenttype"]').change(function () {
        alert("works!"); // This doesn't fire.
    });
</script>

<div id="paymentselector">
    <label>
        <input name="paymenttype" value="deposit" type="radio" />Deposito
    </label>
    <label>
        <input name="paymenttype" value="creditcard" type="radio" />Tarjeta de Credito
    <开发者_如何学Go;/label>
</div>

According to the documentation, this should work: http://api.jquery.com/attribute-equals-selector/

In the change() event, the alert isn't fired.

Is something wrong in my Javascript code?

You could try adding a document ready handler -

$(document).ready(function() {
  $('input[name="paymenttype"]').change(function () {
    alert("works!"); // This doesn't fire.
   });
});

Well, right off the bat, you need to wrap your JS in a $(document).ready(function(){ ... }); block. When the JS is run, the element it's trying to access doesn't exist yet.
