Javascript to copy text from select field to text field

Question

I am trying to copy the values from a select field to a text field

I came across this

But when I created a test page using the following it does not work, I have obviously put it together wrong :(

<html>
<head>
  <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
  <script type="text/javascript" src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-compat-git.js"></script>

<title>Test copy select</title>
<script type='text/javascript'>
  $('select').change(function(){

  $('input[type=name]').val($('option:selected',this).text());
  $('input[type=price]').val($(this).val());
  });
</script>
</head>

<body>
  <form>
    <select>
      <option value="10">Apple</option>
      <option value="20">Orange</option>
    </select>

    <input type="name" />
    <input type="price" />
  </form>
</body>
</html>

How do I fix this?

Thanks

Wrap your javascript in $(document).ready() :

$(document).ready(function() {
  $('select').change(function(){

    $('input[type=name]').val($('option:selected',this).text());
    $('input[type=price]').val($(this).val());
  });
});
