Two suggestions:
1. Don't use inline onclick="..., separate your behavior by
using .click(function(){}) or .bind('click', function(){}) as you're
doing inside the showMe() function
2. IDs cannot begin with a number, it's invalid HTML.
It might be helpful if you gave a more complete sample of your html.
