[jQuery] Unable to use jquery with Firefox

[jQuery] Unable to use jquery with Firefox


I just started on with jquery using
Firefox - 3.0.3
Firebug - 1.2.1
The helloworld example using jquery is not loading with firebug and
just keeps on cycling.
I have disabled all plugins, still the result is same.
The firebug script seems to be stuck at line #679
"jQuery.cache[ id ][ name ] :"
Following is the html:
<html>

<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/
javascript">
// we will add our javascript code here
$(document).ready(function() {
// do stuff when DOM is ready
$("a").click(function() {
alert("Hello world!");
});
});
</
script>
</
head>

<body>
<!-- we will add our HTML content here --
