I am trying to make a YouTube-like progress bar. The bar should load at the page startup. I have tried this so far. Here is the code of my script

$({property: 0}).animate({property: 105}, {
    duration: 4000,
    step: function() {
        var _percent = Math.round(this.property);
        $('#progress').css('width',  _percent+"%");
        if(_percent == 105) {
            $("#progress").addClass("done");
        }
    },
    complete: function() {
        alert('complete');
    }
});

I am also including the jsFiddle of the same, http://jsfiddle.net/ajaSB/3/.

In this jsfiddle, the progress bar appears, but when I use the same code in my IDE and run the file no progress bar appears. What am I doing wrong? Or if there is another way to get the bar?
