jQuery "autocomplete is not a function"

I've seen a few different questions on this but I can't seem to find a solution that would fit mine. I'm using the following code (using the UWA widget framework) and I always receive the message "autocomplete is not a function". I am calling the autocomplete.js file so I'm not sure why I still get this message.

    <html>
    <title>
    <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"></script>
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/plugins/autocomplete/demo/main.css" type="text/css" />
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/plugins/autocomplete/jquery.autocomplete.css" type="text/css" />
  <script type="text/javascript" src="http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/plugins/autocomplete/lib/jquery.bgiframe.min.js"></script>
  <script type="text/javascript" src="http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/plugins/autocomplete/lib/jquery.dimensions.js"></script>
  <script type="text/javascript" src="http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/plugins/autocomplete/jquery.autocomplete.js"></script>
  <script>
       <![CDATA[
      widget.onLoad = function(){
      var data = "apple pears bears bananas".split(" ");
    $("#search").autocomplete(data);
  };
  ]]>
  </script>

</head>
   <body>
     My name: <input id="search" />
   </body>
</html>

Include jQuery UI too. Remove the other references and just get this working first... Also, the order of js file references can also make a difference.

DiEcho's answer is also valid though... you should always wrap it in that if you want it to load when the page is ready.

dev.jquery.com don't allow hotlinking. Host the files somewhere else.

See it for yourself.

After fixing it, read the documentation again.

If you are using jQuery then do below is best practice

$(document).ready(function () {
// write your code here    
});
