jquery event in Tabs

I'm creating a chrome extension, adding a "tab" to a website:

(function () {  
   $(".tabs").append('<li><a data-toggle="tab" href="#MyNewTab" onclick="MyExtClick()">NEW TAB</a></li>');
}());

Until this point, everything is perfect, but when I tried to add an "onclick" event to the tab, ie: a simple alert with a message, but it didn't work

function MyExtClick(){
   alert("This is an alert");
}());

Is that a syntax problem?

EDIT:
have you tried this?

$("a").click(function(e){
   alert("This is an alert");
   e.preventDefault();
});

or

$("a").live("click", function(e){
   alert("This is an alert");
   e.preventDefault();
});

If this doesn't work, can you post it on jsfiddle or jsbin so that I can test it?
