You also need to put your code inside $(document).ready, like this:

$(document).ready(function() {
    $("a").click(function(){
        alert("Hi");
        return false;
    })
});

Otherwise the code won’t be properly bound to the event, since it will try to bind it when the page still hasn’t loaded.
