You have used wrong quotes “
instead of "
in the type attribute of the script
element, so the contents of the script
element is not processed
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
$.get('quotes.txt', function(data) {
var quotes = data.split("\@");
var idx = Math.floor(quotes.length * Math.random());
$('.quotes').html(quotes[idx]);
});
});
</script>
