I am trying to apply some jquery to my code….

<script type="text/javascript">
    alert($('.thickbox'));
</script>

But this doesn’t work.

I have a jquery.js file included in my header (my header is in a different location than this script) .

The script above only works when I add the jquery.js above my code, but that leaves other functionality that uses jQuery not to work…is there a way to fix this? I am using WordPress for this.

What I am expecting to happen is the an alert box to appear, it does not though, I do not get any errors either.

    Try this…

    jQuery('document').ready(function($){
    
      alert($('.thickbox'));
    
    
    });
    

    might work
