jquery and wordpress enqueue

If I enqueue jquery from my own server everything works fine and dandy:

add_action('init', 'headsetup');

function headsetup(){
wp_enqueue_script('jquery_script',get_template_directory_uri().'/js/jquery-.8.3.min.js');
}

but if I use the built in wordpress jquery everything falls over:

add_action('init', 'headsetup');

function headsetup(){
wp_enqueue_script('jquery');
}

Jquery is loading, I can see it in the site <head> but it's not triggering which means the scripts that follow don't work.

Any suggestion?

Sorted!

All I had to do was change the way I called jquery.

Instead of:

$("somefunction")

It has to be:

jQuery("somefunction")

It's a wordpress thing...
