body: <p>I am writing this code in my html file . but slideshow isn't working. All images are lined up vertically. It says <code>bxslider()</code> is not a function. Can anybody help? </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;html&gt;
    &lt;head&gt;
      &lt;script  src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.2/jquery.min.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
      &lt;script src="jquery.bxslider.min.js" type="text/javascript"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
      &lt;link href="jquery.bxslider.css" rel="stylesheet" /&gt;
    &lt;/head&gt;
    &lt;body&gt;
      &lt;ul class="bxslider"&gt;
        &lt;li&gt;&lt;img src="pictures/newban.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
        &lt;li&gt;&lt;img src="pictures/ban8_2.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
        &lt;li&gt;&lt;img src="pictures/ban7.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
        &lt;li&gt;&lt;img src="pictures/ban1.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
      &lt;/ul&gt;
      &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;
        $(document).ready(function(){
          $('.bxslider').bxslider({
            autoControls: true
          });
        });
      &lt;/script&gt;
