Make sure that you have provided a correct reference to the JQuery library.
Something like-

HTML

<script src="Scripts/jquery-1.11.3.min.js"></script>

or, CDN link like-

HTML

<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.3.min"></script>

Also, make sure that you are referencing to JQuery version 1.7.x or later.

Hope, it helps :)
