+3 A:

My psychic powers tell me you're trying to use jQuery. In which case the name of the function is just $ (or jQuery) not $j.

erm sorry i forgot to mention in a hurry, yes i'm using JQuery. I've use $j and it works in other pages.what the difference btw $j and $

`$j` is non-standard name. It's sometimes used when you're using jQuery with another library that also overrides the '$' variable. Sometimes you'll see `var $j = jQuery.noConflict();` at the top of the page which is why it may have worked for you on other pages.

oh yes i think its that cause.Anyways i've used another method without using jquery.thank you for the clarification anyway!have a great day ahead!
