JQuery Click versus Change

Question

I recently asked a question and posted some code, to which a suggestion was to change my click handlers on a select box to change.

My question now is this: should I always use the Change handler -- or are there situations where Click would still be appropriate (Assume I would like cross-browser compatibility).

EDIT: Here's what I gather: For things like select boxes, Change IS the way to go. For simple things, like images, there is no change, so click is the way to go.

Answer 1

Click does not work x-broswer, IE does not respond to a select or option click. Change is the only option available.

Answer 2

When it comes to form controls, such as text-inputs, select-boxes, check- and radiobuttons, then you should use the onChange-event. When it comes to other stuff, such as link, lists, containers etc, then you should definitely use click, since those items does not support the onChange-event.
