Rails spinoffs - May 2006 - Event.observe problem

Hello there, i have a textbox, i fill the textbox with a date from a
javascript popup calendar, im using the like this

Event.observe(''myTextBoxId'', ''change'',
function(){ alert(''epale!'');});

and is not working, if i put the alert inside the input element in the
onchange attribute it works, is that a prototype bug?

Events like keydown/mouseclick/submit/change are only fired when the USER makes
a change. Not when a script does. It isn''t a prototype bug.
