Socket.io connection from localhost

I have nodeJs application which is running on server http://mysite.co:8081. Where I have chat application. Using socket.io for communication.

Now I want to connect to socket from localhost -- I am trying to connect from my machine where I have wamp installed and in that created one html file in www/test/index.html.

The index.html have below code only.

<script src="http://mysite.co:8081/socket.io/socket.io.js"></script>
<script>
  var socket = io('http://mysite.co:8081');
  socket.on('news', function (data) {
    console.log(data);
    socket.emit('my other event', { my: 'data' });
  });
</script>

The socket.io.js file is loading correctly, But I am getting below error

Uncaught TypeError: io is not a function

Let me now what I am doing wrong.

Thanks,

try this one: 

<script src="http://mysite.co:8081/socket.io/socket.io.js"></script>
<script>
  var socket = io.connect('http://mysite.co:8081');
  socket.on('news', function (data) {
   console.log(data);
   socket.emit('my other event', { my: 'data' });
  });
</script>
