 * Hello, I’m trying to execute this code inside a wordpress webpage, but its not
   working. I copied and pasted this same code from my regular webpage that does
   work located at [http://www.vojtaripa.com/mytest2.html](http://www.vojtaripa.com/mytest2.html)
 * When I paste this code into my wordpress site below, the code no longer executes.
   Any ideas?
    [http://www.vojtaripa.com/testing](http://www.vojtaripa.com/testing)
 * here is the code I have for the page:
    _<script src=”[http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js”></script><script&gt://](http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js”></script><script&gt://)
   <![CDATA[ $(document).ready(function(){ $(‘#myTable’).click(function(){ alert(‘
   hello world’); }); }); // ]]></script> <table id=”myTable”> <tbody> <tr> <td>
   blah blah blah</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>
 * <hr />
 * <script>// <![CDATA[
    function showUser(str){if(str==””){document.getElementById(“
   txtHint”).innerHTML=””;return;}if(window.XMLHttpRequest){xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();}
   else{xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject(“Microsoft.XMLHTTP”);}xmlhttp.onreadystatechange
   =function(){if(xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200){document.getElementById(“
   txtHint”).innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText;}}xmlhttp.open(“GET”,”getuser.php?q=”
   +str,true);xmlhttp.send();} // ]]></script>
 * <form><select name=”users” onchange=”showUser(this.value)”><option value=””>Select
   a person:</option><option value=”vojta”>Peter Griffin</option><option value=”
   Vojta”>Lois Griffin</option><option value=”vojta ripa”>Joseph Swanson</option
   ><option value=”Ripa Vojta”>Joe MAMA</option><option value=”Vojta Ripa”>Vojta
   Ripa</option></select></form> 
    <div id=”txtHint”><b>Person info will be listed
   here.</b></div>
 * Here is another professional example of the code working…
