Hey Nagamani!

Good job asking for help, that's actually an important skill in programming -- knowing when you need to get some advice.

The problem with your code is that you are linking to jQuery UI, not jQuery. jQuery UI is another part of jQuery that helps with making the presentation layer of a website look a certain way, while jQuery itself is just around to help with the functionality of a website.

Here is the URL for a minified version of jQuery:

https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.1.1.min.js

See if you can figure out how to link it for yourself.
