The following code for binding a click event handler on a newly created
anchor fails:

// Fails in jQuery 1.1:
$('<a href="#">I am here</a>').prependTo('#test').bind('click',
function() { return false; });

// Workaround:
$('#test').prepend('<a href="#">I am here</a>').find('a').bind('click',
function() { return false; });

I wonder if this is related to #921. http://jquery.com/dev/bugs/bug/921/
