I am wanting to use this code but cant and I am not sure why it isnt working within the templates, the install instructions ask me to please this after calling the script between the <head></head> tags but when I do it displays this on the browser when it shouldnt. It is part of a Jquery script:

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
$('a[rel*=facebox]').facebox()
})

Hope someone can help, I think it may be to do with the $ sign.

Thank you.

You should ask for help at the place you got the install instructions.

Are you putting the code inside of 'script' tags?

I doubt I will get any help as theyre just Jquery coders and probably dont use vbulletin, the script works fine outside of vbulletin that's why I asked for some help on here if anyone knows how to get it to work.

RLshare:

I have put the code outside of the script tags yes, is this incorerect? If so, Is it meant to be within the script tags?

Anytime you put client side script in a page, it needs to be within script tags to tell the browser that it is a script to be executed and not content to be displayed.. with the exception of actually putting the script in the markup
<script type="text/javascript">
//Your code
</script>
