When I load this html in firefox, the error console returns an error:

jQuery is not defined.

The html file, js file, and the css file are all in the same folder. What am I doing wrong?

    I think you run this in local. (Note: not mean localhost, mean you opened the local html file)

    If you run in local, then //ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.2/jquery.min.js means file:///ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.2/jquery.min.js

    So you need to specify the http://

    <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.2/jquery.min.js"></script>

    But once you upload your page to the server, it’s ok with just //, and this is best practice.
