The "a.delete" click handler only attaches to _current_ elements on
the page. If you want to bind to future elements (that you build
dynamically) you can use the .live method:
$("a.delete").live( "click", function(){ alert( "test" ); } );
(Also, another solution is to take advantage of event delegation by
only attaching a click handler to the parent object, then figuring out
which child was clicked.
