Good... jQuery (and Javascript in general) is very picky about syntax. Even one wrong character anywhere can bring all your jQuery to a halt, and you might never know it.
So, always check for typo's carefully. And, as Joseph mentioned, get Firefox and the add-on "Firebug" and start using it while you're developing and it'll catch almost all the errors you're making, or it'll at least alert you that there is an error.
