I know it's a little late for an answer, but I've created a polyfill for the .live() method. I've tested it in jQuery 1.11, and it seems to work pretty well. I know that we're supposed to implement the .on() method wherever possible, but in big projects, where it's not possible to convert all .live() calls to the equivalent .on() calls for whatever reason, the following might work:
if(jQuery && !jQuery.fn.live) {
jQuery.fn.live = function(evt, func) {
$('body').on(evt, this.selector, func);
}
}
Just include it after you load jQuery and before you call live().
