Would somebody be able to tell me what i am doing wrong in this simple hide element script using
JQuery? When i click the button its meant to hide the text in the disclaimer tag. Thanks.

index.html:

<!DOCTYPE HTML">
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<meta name="" content="">
<script src="script.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type='text/javascript' src='jquery.js'></script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="button" id="hideButton" value="hide"/>

<div id="disclaimer">
<p>This is a disclaimer</p>

</div>

</body>
</html>

script.js:

$('#hideButton').click(function() {

    $('#disclaimer').hide();

});

    $(document).ready(function(){
    $('#hideButton').click(function() {
    
        $('#disclaimer').hide();
    
    });
    });
    

    you should enclose it in document ready
    also reference jquery.js before script.js
