What errors are reported in the FF or Opera error console? The most
likely problem is that the jQuery library is not loaded. Are you
certain that the path is correct? Try changing your inline script to
the following and see what gets alerted:
<script type="text/javascript">
alert ( typeof jQuery );
</script>
