Rails: updating partial dosen't execute inline javascript from the partial

Question

I am updating DIV element on Onchange event of dropdown. And I am using partial to replace the content in the DIV. Here is my ajax call:

  var cach_this = this;
        $j.ajax({
            url: url,
            context: document.body,
            complete: function(text,status){
                cach_this.runtime_container[0].innerHTML = text.responseText;
            }
        });

url: is call to controllers method

And from controller it will render like this:

render :partial => "choose_by_all", :locals => {:uniq_id => params[:uniq_id]}, :layout => false

The partial content gets loaded perfectly, But inline javascript in partial dosen't execute.

I was stuck with the same problem in one of my Rails 2 app, after days of Googling, reading docs etc it turned out that Javascript is executed on page load. Loading a partial with some Javascript function in it will not fire unless to explicitly call the function.
