When running this code in my html, I get an object expected error and cannot get any button to function. This is my code.

<button type="button" id="button">Click</button>

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

$("button").click(function () {
    $("p").addClass("highlight");
})
</script>

The debugger say that the error starts on $(“button”).click(function () {

This is my entire html:

I cant get both buttons to change colors, they just turn the color yellow. This does seem to somewhat work on this fiddle site, however I cannot run this from internet explorer because I get the object expected error. When I say run it from internet explorer, I mean open the html page file in the browser.

Thanks

    <button type="button" id="button">Click</button>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    $(function() {
        $("button").click(function () {
            $("p").addClass("highlight");
        })
    });
    </script>
