jQuery $(“#radioButton”).change(…) not firing during de-selection

Looks like the change() function is only called when you check a radio button, not when you uncheck it. The solution I used is to bind the change event to every radio button:

$("#r1, #r2, #r3").change(function () {

Or you could give all the radio buttons the same name:

$("input[name=someRadioGroup]:radio").change(function () {

Here’s a working jsfiddle example (updated from Chris Porter’s comment.)

Per @Ray’s comment, you should avoid using names with . in them. Those names work in jQuery 1.7.2 but not in other versions (jsfiddle example.).
