First, thank you all for your answers!!!

I removed the typo and did what you told me! The firebug console is
finding the $(".show1") and it is hiding the row if I type $
(".show1") .hide()

So I tried your example with the log output, but Firebug says me "$
(document).ready is not a function"

My application.js is looking like this:

$(document).ready(
    function(){
                 $("#filters input:checkbox").click(function(){
                    console.log("hey there");
                  });
     }
);

I found another example on the jquery api documentation. If I put this
into my application.js then it is printing the text:

$(document).ready(function () {
  $("p").text("The DOM is now loaded and can be manipulated.");
});

That is pretty strange...!

Has anyone an idea?
