change the content of div by cliking on a link using jquery

I am learning to make a website.The problem I am facing here is I am not able to change the content of the my rightcolumn div by clicking the link.Nothing is changing even after clicking the link. So far I have done the following code.

I am not understanding exactly where I am going wrong because its not working. The previous content should be replaced by the new content. I am using JQuery which I am new to.I also went through the different links suggested by stackoverflow.com while posting the question but have not understood exactly how should I use it. Any help would be appreciated

It looks like you just need to change $("rightcol_h1") to $("#rightcol_h1") because you're targetting an ID. Without that # symbol, you're targetting all elements that look like this: "<rightcol_h1>" which is probably not what you're going for.
