help with javascript behaviours?

[pantagruel]

Hi,
I've got an application I'm working with that is using Ben Nolan's
behaviors library.

The following code is not working:

'span.datareference' : function (element){
element.onclick = function(){ alert("why not workee?");}
},


evidently the reason is that the parts of the document I want to
associate a behavior with are dynamically written from the response to
a Ajax Post from Prototype's library. I say evidently because the code
is not raising any errors in the error console, I put it at the
beginning of my rules definition and all the other rules are working,
and when I save the page to the filesystem and open it in the browser
it works.

Any suggestions?

Cheers,
Bryan Rasmussen
