无法编译.tpl文件中的JS

I have the following code inside my .tpl file (I am using the Smarty template engine for my project).

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
   <script>
          $(document).ready(function(){
    $('.check:button').toggle(function(){
        $('input:checkbox').attr('checked','checked');
        $(this).val('uncheck all');
    },function(){
        $('input:checkbox').removeAttr('checked');
        $(this).val('check all');        
    })
})
</script>

<input type="button" class="check" value="check all" />

   <input type="checkbox" class="cb-element" /> Checkbox  1
   <input type="checkbox" class="cb-element" /> Checkbox  2
   <input type="checkbox" class="cb-element" /> Checkbox  3

However, in the final compiled php code, the JS function doesn't appear, as a result of which the toggle ("check all") button I want to create doesn't work. The final compiled php code, as seen in the browser looks like this :

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
   <script>
          $(document).ready(function(),function())
})
</script>

<input type="button" class="check" value="check all" />

   <input type="checkbox" class="cb-element" /> Checkbox  1
   <input type="checkbox" class="cb-element" /> Checkbox  2
   <input type="checkbox" class="cb-element" /> Checkbox  3

I am new to using both jQuery and Smarty. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The jQuery function has been discussed in this SO post.

EDIT : I have put the JS inside {literal} and {/literal} and I can now see the JS function in the finally compiled php code. However, the JS function still does not respond! Why might that be?

Consider putting your JS in separate file and linking to it. Smarty uses { and } as special characters.

with smarty, and JS you add needs to be wrapped with {literal} and {/literal} so that smarty knows not to interpret the "{}" tags in the javascript as normal rather than as smarty normally interprets those tags
