Help! New to jQuery - can't get the js files to work.

Help! New to jQuery - can't get the js files to work.


I am fairly new to jQuery and I am trying to add some to my portfolio. However after spending a day working on it and reading instructions I am unable to get any movement. I have tried a few different scripts with the same issue so I am pretty sure I am doing something wrong. I was hoping someone here could help me or tell me what I am doing wrong.

 

I am trying to add this script:

http://workshop.rs/2009/12/image-gallery-with-fancy-transitions-effects/

 

Everything I need is downloaded.

 

My code below:

 

BODY:

  1. <div id="galleryview">
  2. <img src='images/slider-img/image1.jpg' alt='img1' />
  3. <img src='img2.jpg' alt='img2' />
  4. <img src='img3.jpg' alt='img3' />
  5. </div>
  6. <  
  • <script>
  • <$('#slideshowHolder').jqFancyTransitions({ width: 1006, height: 240 });
  • </script>
  •  

    HEAD:

    1. <script src="scripts/jquery-1.4.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    2. <script src="scripts/jqFancyTransitions.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

     

    I originally wanted to use this one but couldn’t for the life of me get it to work:
