No, it really shouldn't. I use that approach with a lot of my stuff too. It
makes pages load a bit faster (there's an article on it somewhere that I
don't really feel like looking up right now). One thing that can be a
gotcha with that is to make sure your jQuery itself (jquery.xyz.min.js
usually) is sourced before your page JS. Now if the onChange is the only
thing not working, then that won't be your problem.

Are you familiar with the JS debugger in Chrome? If not, look into it. I
find it amazingly useful for writing the JS side of my apps. In case you
aren't, see these links:
