Hey raul,

You need to make sure that you include the jquery framework before any other script file or block that is using it.

For instance, this will not work:

<script>
     $("body").html("...");
</script>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.0.min.js" ></script>

But this will:

<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.0.min.js" ></script>
<script>
     $("body").html("...");
</script>

Also, make sure the link path you're using is working. Copy and paste it on your browser's navbar and it should give you the jQuery file itself.

Hope this helps.

I guess I did it right, but i didnt test the link. So it helps a lot! Thx for your time, I appreciate your help :)

$( document ).ready(function() {
    console.log( "ready!" );
});
