Q:

Ajax loading .txt not working

I'm simply trying to display the contents of a file retrieved by "$.get" but I'm not getting any results from the alert in the get . . Actually, the alarm in the get isn't even going off.
What am I doing wrong? 
    $.ajax({ url:"tex.txt", complete:function(r){

        alert([
            'Response Status code: ' + r.status,
            "Response Text length: " + r.responseText.length,
            "Normal status code is 200",
            "Check console for more info and full response body"
        ].join("\r\n"));

        console.log(r.responseText, r);

    } }); 

Extra Info:

The file name is in fact, tex.txt
Jquery was loading before this
line of code using http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js
This is all being ran inside a CLOUD IDE called Cloud9 at
c9.io

UPDATE:  Console log showed three problems:

[blocked] The page at
   'https://c9.io/lemony_andrew/projectgray/workspace/index.html' was
   loaded over HTTPS, but ran insecure content from
   'http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js': this content should
   also be loaded over HTTPS.

Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined main.js:4

Uncaught ReferenceError: loaded is not defined index.html:13

A:

The answer was more in depth than I could have thought.
For some reason I could not connect to the Jquery library by using an external link like so:
http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js
I had to copy the code and paste it into a file on my server.
That solved the issue of jquery not being initialized. The next step was something I didn't even consider. 
When working with javascript: 
$.ajax({ url:"text.txt", complete:function(r){

I would have imagined that that line of code would load the file correctly. But in fact, I didn't know that when you are referencing a file in javascript text.txt that you have to include the path from the page calling the javascript. I have the actual text file located in:
javascript/text.txt because I thought the javascript loads files from the directory it's stored in...
Thanks all that helped!
