For starters, have you ensured that jquery is loaded? Do you use
Firebug, FF Webdeveloper extension, or something else that will show
what javascript has been loaded?
Also, is there some reason for the link ("Click Me!")? The code you
posted should run when the paragraph is clicked, not the link.
And this line:
$("p").fadeOut(4000);
... should be:
$(this).fadeOut(4000);
There's no reason to have jquery seek the element a 2nd time.
4 seconds seems a long time for a fade out effect, btw.
