try...

        $(function() {
                $("a").click(function () {
                        $("#box").fadeOut();
                });
        });

also, you're not linking the jquery lib sucessfully. replace ...

<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.3.2.min.js"></script>

... with ...

        <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/
libs/jquery/1.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
