Javascript not working

The javascript code is not applying to my application. I tried everything possible, including changing the coffee framework for the pure js, but it's not working. Should I enable the JS in anywhere? Or it should be automatic?

Problem resolved.

The problem was that the indentation really matters on coffe script.

Thank you all.

The code was wrote correct but the indentation no.

If you're keen to use javascript for the hover affect, maybe check out the page source. Take a look to see if the javascript files make it as far as the output to the browser. If they're not, you're issue lies within the inclusion of the files. If they are included within the page source, then it sounds like a javascript bug (so check your syntax) or maybe you havne't included something like jquery?
