You missed a bit of the instruction ... where it says "In the ready function
(from the example above), add the following:".
So your script should look like this :
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$("a").click(function(){
alert("Thanks for visiting!");
});
});
</script>
...in other words, where the example had "// your code here", that's exactly
what it meant.
