Newbie here. I must be doing something basic.... wrong.

 

Windows XP, SPII; I.E. 7

 

Simple load of jQuery, as shown in the "How jQuery Works" doc works fine. But as soon as I add a basic function, as show in the doc, it fails on me. IE says "Object expected" in char 1 on this line:

      $(document).ready(function(){

 

I am not familiar with that construction; it is over my head. FireFox loads the page without error, but does not execute the JavaScript code.

 

It must be something simple. What am I doing wrong?

 

Thanks.
