I just created ASP .NET MVC4 project by default and put some code from this sample and it is not working at all.

Any clues?

Solution

It doesn't look like you include the jQuery library. You need to add this to your <head> section:

<!-- include jQuery library -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.5/jquery.min.js"></script>
