simple jQuery not working....?!

[toptomato]

This is some very simple jQuery but is not working, Can someone clue me in as to why this is not working?,

The code is here,

<script type="text/javaScript" src="js/jquery.min.js"></script>

<script type="text/javaScript">

function doIt() {
alert('please work');
$('body').append('<b>This is some appended text</b>');
}

doIt();

</script>

Firebug doesn't report any errors. To see the page, click below. Big thanks,

Your link isn't working.

It's probably because you're trying to access the body element before the browser has parsed the body tag. You'll need to tell jQuery to wait for the DOM ready event before executing your code.

$(document).ready(function () {
    doIt();
});
