    $(‘#id’) is an ID selector. Therefore, your tag should read

    <a href="javascript:void(0)" id="kiranhype">Click for a greeting</a>.

    Alternatively, if you just wanted an alert, you could do something like

    <a href="javascript:alert('You clicked me')">Click me</a>.

    EDIT: See this jsfiddle
