Hello all,
I'm trying to run through the simplest tutorials on jquery and for
some reason I can't get any of the jquery code to work.
I've downloaded jquery and I've made sure that this file is in the
same directory as jquery-1.3.2.js.
This is the code taken from the tutorial:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<script src="jquery-1.3.2.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$("a").click(function(event){
alert("As you can see, the link no longer took you to
jquery.com");
event.preventDefault();
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a href="http://jquery.com/";>jQuery</a>
</body>
</html>
when the user clicks on the link it shouldn't take them to jquery.com,
instead it should display an alert box.
but it takes me to jquery.com every time.
Thanks.
