I am new to datavis and the D3 library and I'm trying to follow the tut here http://mbostock.github.com/d3/tutorial/bar-1.html
When I run the code, nothing displays on my webpage, can anyone point out the problem??
I think its something to do with the d3.select method. When I run the code and inspect it, the body is empty, so Im assuming nothing is being created. Any help would be hugely appreciated!!!

.attr("class", "chart");
//adding div elements to the bar chart
chart.selectAll("div")
.data(data)
.enter().append("div")
.style("width", function(d) { return d * 10 + "px"; })
