jQuery drilldown list menu with AJAX content not working
===

I have an enormous menu using the Filamentgroup's drilldown menu. After a couple of tweaks, the menu works pretty good, but it's too slow and sluggish because there are thousands of (duplicate) items in there. I know a chained selection would be better in this case, but i like this menu a lot and it makes things a lot easier for the visitors. Now instead of five selectboxes, they can just browse into one.

I opened a topic about this yesterday and was pointed into the AJAX direction. With my limited knowledge of JS and jQuery I was able to load the data (just a plain HTML page with list items) using the jQuery AJAX call into an empty page. So far so good, but when i try to load that same data into the menu. Nothing happens..

I've tried everything. Different versions of the plugins, changing the way the list was built, checking errors in the list, html, css, js, etc. Bottomline is that the call works excellent in an empty page or in any existing list, but not in the script itself. I created a [JSFiddle][1]. The first two work fine, the last item doesn't work, that's where the AJAX list should be loaded.

A tip a read on the official site that doesn't do anything for me (but perhaps I am not using it right) is:

    $('#hierarchybreadcrumb').menu({
    			content: $('#hierarchybreadcrumb').next().html(),
    			backLink: false,
    			maxHeight: 540,
    			width: 540,
    			select: function(event, options) { 
     $.ajax({ 
     url: "keuzemenu-opties.html",
      cache: false, 
     success: function(value) { 
     // add the returned HTML (the new select) 
     $(".result").html(value).selectmenu(); 
     } 
     }); 
     } 
    		});

When you look [here][2] and search for AJAX you'll find a lot of people with the same problem, but i can't make a solution out of the anwers.
