Naw... You can always create a test case, without any of your client's code, and post it on a public server like http://pages.google.com/ - this will make it a LOT easier for people to help you. > ...but here's the code: > > <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC > "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" > "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd";> > <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"; xml:lang="en" lang="en"> > <head> > <title>test</title> > <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> > <meta name="title" content="" /> > <meta name="description" content="" /> > <meta name="keywords" content="" /> > <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css" /> > <script src="jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script> > <script type="text/javascript"> > $(document).ready(function(){ > > $("a").click(function(){ > alert("Thanks for visiting!"); > }); > > }); > </script> > </head> > <body><a name="top"></a> > > <a href="http://jquery.com/";>jQuery</a> > > [more html...] > > > So, if I understand this, clicking on the "jQuery" link above > should...uhh, pop an alert right? Or is jQuery really not that simple? > Or do I have a typo? Or am I in the wrong profession? (OK, don't > answer that.) Yes, that's how it should work. Nothing jumps out at me that's obviously wrong with the code, but what have you tried so far in debugging it? If you haven't done these, already, you should: * Load the page with Firebug enabled to see if it logs any errors. * Sprinkle the code with "console.log(123);" calls or "debugger;" statements so Firebug logs the messages or stops in the debugger, to see what if any of your code is actually being executed. * Use the Information/View JavaScript command in the Web Developer toolbar to see if jquery.js is actually being loaded. Those are the kinds of things you need to do next. If nothing turns up, go get that Google Pages account set up and post a test case. -Mike
